The Weekend Sewer Series shows home sewers how to make a handsome new garment quickly by modifying familiar patterns to create new and different designs. Focusing on one type of garment per book, each book offers hundreds of tips and helpful hints for quick and efficient sewing, step-by-step instructions for creatively modifying favorite patterns for a new look, and much more. 100 color photos and 100 illustrations.

The inventive ideas explode in this book.

This is a must have book, for those of you having a hard time being inventive, like I am. I like to sit down and get going on a project, without having to think of something new on my own. I picked this book up at the library and now I need to own it. It gets the creative juices flowing and makes you want to stop everything to make time for sewing that original outfit. It's well written with shortcut ideas and encourages those of us who find so little time to actually sew these days. The week is outlined with steps for each project so after the weekend ends your project is done. I'm only hoping that Ms. Mathews continues with this line of books and ideas.

A wealth of inspiration and instruction!

The photographs alone will send you to your sewing room. Kate Mathews offers over 200 photos of finished products plus the how-to instructions to produce them. The gist of her message is that you can take a dress pattern (she doesn't specify brand or number) and, with some planning and creativity, make it truly your own one-of-a-kind designer original. Her techniques are fun and trendy and she provides something for almost every sort of taste.

The book offers something to dressmakers of all levels of expertise. To be sure, the more experienced will have less difficulty in mastering and adapting the suggestions. But the novice can be equally entranced by many of the techniques.

This book is a joyful addition to a sewing library!
