The Matchy Matchy Sewing Book

The Matchy Matchy Sewing Book by Amy Gonzales and Thesea Kuo

Self-taught sewists Amy Gonzales and Theresa Kuo founded Matchy Matchy Sewing Club to share beginner-friendly, design-forward ways to make sewing clothes simple, satisfying, and fun. In this easy-to-use guide, they gather their fresh ideas and skill-building methods for mixing, matching, and using what you’ve got on hand—the “zero-waste” mentality—to create unique, handmade pieces. Readers will learn basic techniques for everything from sizing and cutting fabric to bias binding and pocket placement, as well as big-picture methods for using pattern blocks to construct garments that fit their aesthetic and fuel their creativity. Matchy Matchy includes 12 flexible patterns where simple shapes and easy construction take the overwhelm out of sewing and help crafters feel the joy of discovery. There’s something for everyone with templates for tops, dresses, pants, jackets, and accessories from size XXS to 6XL.
