“This delightful little book has sent me straight to my closet to start turning those items in my mending basket into something I look forward to wearing! In an age of upcycling, this primer is exactly what we need. It also sparks the imagination in how we can reinvent and transform ill-fitting and out-of-date clothing into fun, modern, and very individual creations.” - Kimberley
“Simply superb book which is not only well thought through, laid out and illustrated but also jam packed with so many ideas to get the most out of your clothes and more. So many useful tips on alterations, customisation, salvage and repair, I have definitely gained the confidence to not be so quick to write off clothes just because they have become damaged or might have gone out of fashion.” - Yoyo
