Book review: DIY Couture


Recently went through Rosie Martin's "DIY Couture: create your own fashion collection".  Now that I have studied patternmaking, and have more experience with constructing garments, this is not the book for me.  However, if you are a newbie, and you find it hard to follow sewing instructions, then this might be the book for you.  Rosie uses a combination of basic shapes and garments from your own wardrobe to create patterns, and then uses very visual instructions to show construction.  She also provides lots of inspiration for modifications and using your own personal style.
