Basic Dressmaking

About Basic Dressmaking Android App

The "Make, Do and Mend" ethos is alive and kicking. It's about being an individual, creating your own style, being thrifty and learning new skills. And whilst this app doesn't show you how to read a pattern or thread a sewing machine, it does tell you everything you need to know about fabric choice, how to measure yourself accurately, terminology, how to choose a pattern and a whole lot more.

If you're bored of seeing the same clothes everywhere, or desperately trying to find an "off the peg" outfit that fits, this app might be the push you need. There's a whole world of fabrics out there, just waiting for you to let loose your creativity.

You don't need to be an expert seamstress - if you can thread a needle, and cut with scissors, that's all the basic skills you need to create clothing that fits and suits you.

Learn which fabric will suit your body shape and size, and your chosen pattern. Find out how to flatter your body shape, and choose great colours and patterns to suit you. In fact, you will never have to look like a high street clone again - whether you customize an existing outfit, or create something from scratch.
