  • Really nice book

    Lots of simple instructions to follow. Beautiful photographs to show finished dresses and how to do the techniques needed to complete the project. The patterns are included for each dress and are clear so tracing them is easy. Good for people new to dressmaking and for those with experience.

  • Great value

    Great book. Plenty of sewing help and information about fabric etc, lovely photographs of the finished garments. Clear instructions. Very good value for the patterns as well with the opportunity of mixing and matching to create different designs. This is the second Gertie book I have purchased and I'm sure I will be purchasing more.
