Yes, with a little imagination--and DIY tools like needles, thread, and safety pins--you too can update an outdated castoff. Inside you'll discover how to
- ace the sewing basics (remember: safety first )
- create DIY designer look-alikes

- give bridesmaid dresses a second life
- dye your way to a vibrant new wardrobe

Complete with colorful before-and-after photos, fun sidebars, and even a groovy sewing song playlist to get you in the zone, "New Dress a Day" proves that you don't need a sewing machine or a big budget to turn unfashionable trash into stylish treasure.
