25 Vibrant Projects for Handmade Clothes and Accessories
Adaku Parker
Description
African wax prints are colourful designs created by dyeing cotton fabric using wax-resist techniques, and then overprinting. The result is a fabric that is bright, colourful and super-easy to use.
Adaku Parker has developed 25 step-by-step projects to make a wide range of stylish pieces with this fabric. There are instant wardrobe classics like a shirt dress, A-line skirts and culottes, as well as wonderful accessories such as tote bags, a zip purse and a headband. The basic techniques you will need are all explained, so you'll feel confident with essentials like attaching waistbands, gathering, pleats, making buttonholes and adding linings.
There are projects suitable for all skill levels so all you need is some gorgeous African wax print fabric and a sewing machine, and you'll be on your way to updating your wardrobe with unique pieces that will help you stand out from the crowd.
