Well... submitted by sara on August 3, 2017, 1:47pm I like the idea of up-cycling clothes, but... I wouldn't go out in public wearing most of the clothes in this book. I think these patterns go over better in Tokyo and on skinny women.

Ditto submitted by terpsichore17 on August 29, 2018, 9:24am I must concur with Sara: I like the idea of upcycling, and the *principles* of sewing/combining/reimagining garments might come through. But I wouldn't combine college sweatshirts into one overlarge half-and-half situation, or stick a cut-out cat on my shirt.
