Sewists, thrift shoppers and fashion collectors will love making the book's three downloadable patterns, and learning how to reproduce favourite vintage looks that fit modern figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first half of the book is a journey through pattern and couture sewing techniques and iconic designs. Gretchen combines a bounty of sketches, historic images, process photos and clear instructions to create an irresistible sewing guide and lookbook for the vintage fashion enthusiast.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the second half, Gretchen deconstructs three intricate garments, the Madeleine dress, the Camille sheath and the Lillian princess coat: focusing on just three designs offers a sewing and design foundation in a full range of sizes – from 2 to 20 and 18 to 34, with separate A-H cup sizes. This wide range is not easy to find in other sewing books, and more important than ever for body inclusivity. Each garment (two dresses and a jacket) is shown with detailed instructions and links to download and print full-size patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Fleur Cottage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50988109496615,"sku":null,"price":52.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0944\/9272\/1447\/files\/eyJidWNrZXQiOiJ3ZWItbmluamEtaW1hZ2VzIiwia2V5IjoiY2FuZG9ib29rc2F3c1wvaW1hZ2VzXC9wcm9kaW1nXC8xNDkwM18xLmpwZyIsImVkaXRzIjp7InJlc2l6ZSI6eyJ3aWR0aCI6NzAwLCJoZWlnaHQiOjcwMCwiZml0IjoiaW5zaWR.webp?v=1769653913","url":"https:\/\/www.fleurcottage.com.au\/products\/book-gerties-charmed-sewing-studio","provider":"Fleur Cottage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
