I made one project from this book so far. The projects are fairly easy looking, if you have sewn before. I hope to make a few more.

Al observar los detalles aplicados al libro, las fotos, el paso a paso y desvelar secretos de prendas tan bonitas es genial y se aprecia el trabajo y la dedicación que hay detrás.
El bolsillo trasero al final con los patrones es todo un acierto y anima a aventurarse a crear tus propias prendas de fantasía.
Lo recomiendo 💕

A good beginners guide to creating a fantasy-orientated outfit for the renaissance faire. The looks given are very basic and timeless and give a lot of creative freedom to add your own touches to. I also loved that the author included actual sewing patterns as well. The projects aren't too-daunting and if you already know how to sew, it's a great place to start creating.

I wish the sewing projects had more clear instructions and size inclusion. I really like the leather and resin projects and the images are very inspiring.
