Learn how to sew the clothes you already have in your closet! Many of us have piles of clothes we don't wear because they don't fit quite right. This book shows you how to adapt, fix or adjust your clothes, instead of buying new ones.

You know that piece of clothing you loved when you bought it, but it turned out to have a weird fit, and now it's just hanging in your closet? Or that pair of pants that are too tight, or that dress that sits a little strangely in the waist? There's no reason to throw them away or let them sit unused in your closet. In this book, Mari Melilot shows you how to make your favorite pieces fit perfectly. With simple step-by-step explanations, she shows you how to sew out a waistband, adjust the length of a skirt, alter sleeves, and much more.

With this book you will also learn how to patch, darn, replace zippers and a number of other clever ways to make your wardrobe last longer. Taking care of what you have is not only sustainable and economical, it is also fun needlework and a way to have a wardrobe that is just perfect for you. The book is suitable for both beginners and experienced seamstresses.
