Synopsis
Design and sew your own fabulously stylish skirts. In this fun guide, Nicole Smith shows you how to draft a pattern for a custom fit and shape it into one of four basic silhouettes: wrap, straight, flared, and high-waisted. Each skirt can then be easily redesigned into seven distinct looks -- one for each day of the week. Suitable for beginners and expert sewers alike, Skirt-a-Day Sewing will inspire you to express your unique personal style as you stitch up great new pieces for your wardrobe.

- j***j (146)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseGreat
- a***7 (21)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe seller included an image of the book cover for the 1941 edition, but what I actually received is the 1995 re-print with a completely different hardcover (navy blue hardcover with no text on the front). This was somewhat misleading. Because the seller posted an image of the 1941 book cover, that led me to believe that I was receiving the actual 1941 edition. Hopefully the seller will do better next time. I could have bought the 1995 edition cheaper through Columbia University.
