Start with my Free Pattern, the Denim Pinafore Dress. It is a great way to begin as it consists of a standard bodice shape and a straight skirt. Darts in the standard position and there is a zip down the centre back.

Watch my Free YouTube Video 'Make a Dress' and you will learn cutting out, pattern marking up, stitching, inserting a zip, pressing, top-stitching, embroidery and finishing.

After just one dress you will have learnt all the techniques required for making most of my classic garments.
