Basic techniques include seam and hem finishes, how to sew buttons and buttonholes, how to work with knit fabrics and, finally, finishing details including bindings and spaghetti straps, tailored pockets and zippers. Each lesson in the book is illustrated in meticulous detail in a series of step-by-step photographs accompanied by charts, diagrams, and photos from the catwalk."--Provided by publisher.
