Are you tired of struggling with commercial sewing patterns that never seem to fit just right? Do you dream of being able to create your own stylish and perfectly fitted wardrobe without the hassle of patterns? Look no further – Freehand Fashion is here to revolutionize your sewing experience.

Chinelo Bally, known for her impressive skills on The Great British Sewing Bee, has shared her secret to success in this innovative book. Before her appearance on the show, Chinelo had never used a sewing pattern. Instead, she relied on a freehand cutting method taught to her by her aunt. Now, in Freehand Fashion, Chinelo reveals how she creates fashionable, fitted garments without the need for patterns.

Drawing inspiration from a traditional Nigerian technique, Chinelo has developed her own freehand cutting method that focuses on individual body measurements and perfect fit. This technique is surprisingly simple and accessible to all, requiring just a sewing machine, measuring tape, chalk, and a good pair of scissors.

Using basic garment blocks, Chinelo demonstrates how to draft, cut, and construct a whole wardrobe of clothes that will fit every shape and size. With step-by-step illustrations, she guides readers through creating the five basic blocks that form the foundation for tops, skirts, dresses, and more. The projects included in the book are modern, stylish, and versatile, catering to both daywear and eveningwear.
