Dressmaking
Now is the time to start planning spring and summer wardrobes for yourself and your family, and the most economical way to provide them is to make the clothes yourself. Sportswear is at the height of fashion this year, but do fabrics like stretch towelling need special handling? Are there disadvantages in buying the new cut-out fabric kits? And how can you encourage your children to start dressmaking?
Betty Foster , fashion and sewing consultant, joins Jill Burridge to answer your questions. Produced by the Woman's Hour unit
Lines open from 8.0 am long wave only
