Summer 2016 Notions

OOTD stands for outfit of the day and this book will help you to make the clothes you want. You’ll discover the basics of sewing, 6 patterns and skill building. This book is ideal for teens, the sizes are small in my opinion for today’s market. The smallest bust size is 28″ (70cm), the largest size is bust 36″ (90cm). However you will learn how to customize, resize and more. patterns include tops, skirts, dresses and trousers for everyday casual wear. Instructions are clear and there are good photos throughout.
