It gives clear explanations and will help with understanding ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Wow! Not Just Skirt Patterns--A Sewing Tutorial as Well! *by E***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2014* The Kindle version is a great deal for $2.50 for 28 skirt patterns. The ideas run the style gamut from youthful to classic styles. Many (not all) could be for any age from teen to senior with the simple adjustment of hem length and/or fabric choice. A very nice collection.There is a lot of basic information about clothing construction, tools for handsewing, pressing, a directory of machine needles and how to choose the correct one for a particular fabric, types of threads, various basic drafting tools and their use, instructions for pattern drafting, how to measure yourself--lots and lots and lots of good instruction and information with large clear illustrations and photographs. I think a determined novice could self-teach from the information provided, but access to a mentor (check out older ladies who've been sewing for decades and love to share their experience) would accelerate the learning process and minimize mistakes. A beginner with some construction experience under their belt would have a better chance of completing a wearable garment.The skirt patterns are not graded for difficulty and some of the designs may prove overly challenging for the inexperienced. If you have never made a garment before, may I suggest beginning with either the straight skirt ("pencil" skirt), or if your figure is a little "hippy," as in pear-shaped, the A-line skirt. Either of those will teach you (in addition to pattern drafting a simple shape) straight seams, attaching a waistband, inserting a zipper, hemming, and of course fitting. And that's more than plenty for a first project.The Kindle version does have some odd little hitches in a few places, but all the pages are accessible. I usually use Kindle for PC for instructional books to blow the illustrations and pictures to maximum size. The little slider button makes it painless to move back and forth over the places where the pages "stick." I can't imagine trying to use this book on a standard Kindle or the smaller Fire. Books like this are perfect for the Kindle for PC app. I didn't deduct any stars over this issue--the sheer volume of information trumps the sticky page issue. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Great designs and ideas *by R***W on Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2016* This book has all the tips you could need to make great skirts. The pattern drafting is also very simple and easy to follow, it makes adaptations easy as well. It also gets the creative ideas flowing so you can create your own skirts using these designs as a starting point. ## Frequently Bought Together - Skirt-a-Day Sewing: Create 28 Skirts for a Unique Look Every Day - Sew Many Dresses, Sew Little Time: The Ultimate Dressmaking Guide - Sew Your Own Wardrobe: More Than 80 Techniques --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/4186000-skirt-a-day-sewing-create-28-skirts-for-a-unique](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/4186000-skirt-a-day-sewing-create-28-skirts-for-a-unique) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
