Breaking The Pattern A Modern Way To Sew
Hello there! I stumbled upon this amazing book, Breaking the Pattern: A modern way to sew (Flexibound) and boy oh boy, am I excited to share it with you all. If you're as obsessed with sewing as I am, then you know the struggle can be real when it comes to finding new and fresh patterns. But this book has got everything you need and more to get your creative juices flowing!
The description of this book reads, "Breaking the Pattern is the first authentic dressmaking book that showcases the beauty and uniqueness of Scandinavian style." Ok, first of all, can we talk about how cool Scandinavian style is? I mean, have you seen Swedish fashion? So chic, so effortless, so...perfect!
Now, let's talk about the materials section of the book. Y'all, they don't play around when it comes to fabrics! From crepe to denim, from linen to leather, this book has got patterns for all types of fabrics. I'm already drooling over the thought of making myself a linen dress, perfect for those hot summer days.
The book also includes patterns in all sizes, making it more inclusive than some other sewing books out there. It's got everything from XS to XXL, so no matter what your body size is, you can still rock some awesome self-made clothes. Trust me, there's no better feeling than wearing something you've made with your own two hands.
Ok, here comes the fun part - the how-to section. Don't be intimidated by the thought of making your own clothes, because this book breaks down each pattern step-by-step with clear instructions and diagrams. It even includes a "Sewing School" section, perfect for those who are new to sewing or need a refresher on some basic techniques. I mean, who knew there were so many types of seams?! Not me, that's for sure.
Overall, I highly recommend Breaking the Pattern: A modern way to sew (Flexibound) to anyone who loves sewing or is thinking of getting into it. With its beautiful photos, easy-to-follow patterns, and inclusive sizing, it's a must-have for any DIY fashionista. Happy sewing!
