Inhaltsangabe

Alabama Studio Sewing Patterns is the book Alabama Chanin fans are begging for! This exciting compendium takes the Alabama Chanin library to the next level, offering all the patterns from Chanin’s first three books on a convenient CD, plus instructions and patterns for 12 new skirts, dresses, tops, and jackets, with illustrated guidelines for customizing the fit and style of each. Chanin teaches readers the ins and outs of refashioning shapes, raising and lowering necklines, taking in and letting out waistlines, and many more key forms of customization; she also provides guidelines for adapting patterns from other popular sewing companies to the Alabama Chanin style―stitched by hand in organic cotton jersey and embellished with stencils, embroidery, and beading.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Alabama Studio Sewing Patterns is the book Alabama Chanin fans have been calling for. It is a compendium of all of the patterns from the first three books on a convenient CD, plus three all-new garments (a swing top, a cardigan and a flared wrap skirt), with illustrated guidelines for adjusting the patterns in order to customise the fit and style. In each of her original books, Chanin offered her fans instructions and paper patterns for the most popular garments in the Alabama Chanin line, from tops to skirts to dresses. But this book takes it one step further, teaching readers the ins and outs of raising and lowering necklines, taking in and letting out waistlines, and adding and reshaping sleeves on Chanin's own wildly successful patterns; it also provides guidelines for adapting and stitching up patterns for sale by other sewing companies, such as Vogue, Butterick, and Simiplicity, in the Alabama Chanin style--made with organic cotton jersey and embellished with stencils, embroidery, and beading. Alabama Studio Sewing Patterns is a valuable addition to STC Craft's Alabama trio of books: Alabama Stitch Book, Alabama Studio Style, and Alabama Studio Sewing + Design.
