Mathorne presents a collection of 17 Tunisianwork garment patterns for adult women, with patterns that accommodate multiple sizes. The models, too, illustrate multiple racial, ethnic, and body types. The work is translated from Danish and was originally published in Britain, and the English translation comes with an abbreviation chart and a terminology conversion table (some U.S. terms are different from their British counterparts).
