Sewing With Scraps - B. Helmersson - Book
Learn how to repurpose leftover fabrics and make a Scandi-inspired wardrobe with Sewing with Scraps.
Home sewing can create a lot of natural wastage, and it can be tricky to find ways to use leftover fabric pieces. Sewing with Scraps will show you how to think sustainably and make 15 fashion-forward garments and accessories in sizes UK 6-30, including a workwear jacket, patchwork tee, quilted coat, tote bag and more. Swedish designer Birgitta Helmersson and Sam Grose will teach you three core methods to make the most of your scraps - patchwork, strips and collage - before you put them to use. This book includes 3 unisex PDF patterns - use the ones provided or try out the methods with some of your own favourite patterns. Whether you're a beginner or experienced sewer, Sewing with Scraps will show you how to elevate leftover fabrics into clothing you'll treasure for years to come.
SOLD IN FULL METERS - fabric, elastic, and other products that are cut to measure are available only in full meters for online orders. Its a Shopify thing and as soon as we find an awesome workaround you can count on us to make that magic happen. Want to put in a request for a 0.5 meter cut? Find the form HERE! Due to order volume, 0.5m requests will NOT be processed during online sales.
Buying fabric? Measure twice so that we can cut once! Review your pattern. Check the unit of measure (we go by meters). Add a bit of length to factor in shrinkage during prewashing.
Buying patterns? Pattern size ranges can vary depending on the pattern, designer, and style. Review the pattern closely before purchase and check your own measurements against the pattern specifications. All patterns and printed materials (books, magazines, etc.) are final sale.
Picking colours? RICK RACK does our best to accurately represent all products and colours but colours may appear different between device screens. Please be aware that any cut fabric cannot be returned or exchanged, so if you're not sure about colour drop us a line or send us an email!
