Her sewing patterns do not disappoint. These are the same dresses, tops, skirts, and accessories that carry four-figure price tags and are coveted by eco-groovy lady rock stars. The same ones. But in her books, Natalie teaches you how to make them yourself... Natalie's pieces are so simple to sew together... They go together in a single evening, and when you pull them on they don't just make you look better than you did in whatever you were wearing before, they make you feel better.\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e- Heather Ross, HeatherRoss.Squarespace.com\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\"The photographs in this volume are exceptional...
