Before appearing on the BBC's The Great British Sewing Bee, Chinelo
Bally had never used a sewing pattern. She wowed the judges with
her ability to create stylish, fitted garments using a freehand
cutting method that was taught to her by an aunt. In Freehand
Fashion, Chinelo lets us in to the secret of how she does it. Using
a series of basic garment blocks, Chinelo explains how this
innovative technique can be used to create a whole wardrobe of
fashionable clothes that will fit every shape and size - with no
patterns required. Based on a traditional Nigerian technique,
Chinelo has developed her own freehand cutting method. The emphasis
is on the individual's own body measurements, and getting the
perfect fit. This is a surprisingly simple technique that anyone
can learn. No fancy equipment is needed - just a sewing machine,
measuring tape, chalk and of course a good pair of scissors. Using
step-by-step illustrations, the book shows how to draft, cut and
construct the five basic blocks that are used - either singly or in
combination - to make every item of clothing in the wardrobe. Once
you have your basic blocks, you are ready to tackle the projects -
practical garments that are fashionable, modern, stylish and
versatile. There are tops, skirts, day dresses and eveningwear.
This is an exciting sewing technique that will be brand new to most
people, even experienced dressmakers. There really are no limits -
and the beauty of this technique is that it can be applied to any
body shape.
