## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Empowering
  

*by P***O on Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2016*

I agree with all of the other reviewers -this book is incredibly useful.  It includes a pattern for the dress shown on the cover, and then teaches you how to alter this pattern to make basically any look you want.  I bought this book because my daughter wanted to be Rainbow Brite for Halloween and I wasn't willing to spend $50 for a vintage pattern on ebay.  I used the techniques in the book to make Rainbow Brite's gathered long sleeves, square neckline, and flared skirt.  There were still things I had to figure out on my own but I would not have even known where to begin without the basic pattern pieces I was able to make using Liesl's instructions.  Now that Rainbow Brite is done, my daughters are having fun browsing through the pictures and imagining what we can make next.  The techniques outlined in this book for altering pattern pieces give you a solid understanding of how to manipulate the shape of fabric for different outcomes and this knowledge can be applied to any pattern, so I really feel empowered as a self-taught seamstress that I can make almost whatever I want using this book.

    The best girls dress sewing book I own
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2017*

The best girls dress sewing book I own! The instructions are detailed and illustrated. The author explains clearly how to modify the included (full size) pattern to make a plethora of different dress styles, from empire bodice to A-line dresses, to pleated dresses... This book renders most of my other dress making books obsolete. Love this book!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Best investment in sewing I've made all year.
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2017*

No longer buying various sewing patterns for my seven granddaughters. I just find pictures of cute dresses and then using the Building Blocks recreate the picture. To buy one book that is chock full of wonderful ideas and patterns is well worth the initial investment.
