Beginner Sewing Books with info for plus size sewers
This section is sponsored by
Dose anyone know of a beginning book for plus size sewers, or one that at least acknowledge sewers with past a size 12? It seems like all of the good sewing books follow the fashion industry standard of stopping sizes at 12. I would really like a sewing bible that includes info for plus size sewers without the garish tent dresses and untailored pleated pants. I refuse to buy a book with patterns I can’t use or one that ignores plus size sewers. I’ve been sewing for years but have never picked up a book. I would like to learn to sew the “right” way to familiarise myself with tailoring techniques. Any suggestions would brighten my day and make my search so much less frustrating. Thanks!
