Â
Maybe you already sew your own skirts, topsâ€”or even dressesâ€”yet the thought of taking on a coat or jacket still seems a bit daunting. In Built by Wendy Coats and Jackets, indie fashion designer Wendy Mullin puts those fears quickly to rest, with guidance and know-how that will give any level sewer the confidence needed to create the ultimate fashion essential.
Â
Using three patterns for a fitted jacket, a basic jacket, and a straight coat, Wendy offers dozens of variations on these silhouettes so that you can step out in style in a statement-making bolero or a sophisticated, Chanel-like dinner jacket in boucle. Beginners can stick to the basic patterns, while Wendy helps more experienced sewers discover endless outerwear possibilities just by making slight pattern adjustments.
Â
Full of easy-to-understand instructions and the secrets and shortcuts Wendy has learned as a designer and home sewer, this bookâ€™s creative projects and styling suggestions will show anyone just how simple creating a dream jacket can be.
