The Illustrated Hassle-Free Make Your Own Clothes Book - 1971

"There's no need to lock yourselves into fickle trends of transient and exploitative plastic fashions. Wear what you want – dress like a Queen Victoria, a factory worker, a biker, holy man, a nun, silent star siren, cuckoo clock, Aztec Indian... – whatever you want, you're free to do it and not only that - make your own clothes! No kidding: inexpensive, comfortable, groovy to wear, simple to do, for humans of all ages, sizes, sex and affiliation. Yes, here is the straight out dope on how to make your own clothing. No more mystique, no more sexism. With or without patterns, machines, fancy materials - anyone can do it. Got some old clothes that you love and fit real well? Use them as patterns for new ones. Got some rips? embroider on a pretty little patch. Want something new and spectacular, something that fits right along with where your head is moving? Cut up, remodel, add-on and generally let your old stuff evolve right along with everything else..."
