Beyond the BBC Great British Sewing Bee

Join BBC Great British Sewing Bee 2014 finalist, dressmaker and freehand cutter, Chinelo Bally for an illustrated talk celebrating the release of her book Freehand Fashion.

Before appearing on the BBC’s Great British Sewing Bee, Chinelo Bally had never used a sewing pattern. She wowed the judges with her ability to create stylish, fitted garments using a freehand cutting method that was taught to her by an aunt. In Freehand Fashion, Chinelo lets us in to the secret of how she does it. Using a series of basic garment blocks, she explains how this innovative technique can be used to create a whole wardrobe of fashionable clothes.
