Explore how a dozen different jackets can emerge when a single pattern is the starting point. Using imagination, artistry, sewing knowledge and constant improvisation, Barb shares small, easy pattern changes, each of which can become the beginning of a new look. See modifications to the lapel, collar and sleeve, and even how a needle detail can impact style and fit. These structural changes are only the beginning: learn how adding new embellishment details can take the jacket even further, including the use of vintage textiles and findings, adding color with inks and incorporating hand-wovens. Gather ideas and how-to for improvising your way to wonderful, distinctive clothing.
