Description

Sewing is good for the soul and this collection of loungewear sewing projects is designed to soothe the soul and lift the spirits. Includes full-size, graded patterns (up to a UK size 26/US size 22) for 10 easy-to-wear garments including pyjama pants, a linen T shirt, a summer dress and palazzo pants. The designs are for relaxed-fit clothes or 'loungewear', suitable for both work and home. AUTHOR: Jules Fallon is an established indie pattern designer and owner of the brand Sew Me Something, she is also an experienced author and teacher. Jules is a regular on the sewing, quilting and craft show circuit in the UK and hosts regular workshops and retreats on dressmaking and sewing. All the garment instructions have written step-by-steps and diagrams making them suitable for all abilities. But this book isn't just about the clothes, it's about the power of sewing to help you relax and unwind. As well as the machine sewn garment patterns there are projects for hand sewing and repurposing as well as a smattering of delicious recipes to feed more than just the soul! The projects are presented seasonally and each season has a slow sewing project for when you have more time, a quick sewing project so that even the time-poor can get a therapeutic sewing 'fix' and either a hand sewing project, such as embroidering a decorative detail onto one of the garments, or a reinvention project.
