The Great British Sewing Bee - Series 1

Amateur sewers test their sewing and dressmaking skills. The contestants make an A-line dress, alter a high street top and create a made-to-measure dress under the clock.

The contestants tackle fly fastenings, patch pockets and made-to-measure silk - but two amateur sewers must be sent home.

It is the semi-final and the sewers compete in three more challenges, including a made-to-measure jacket.

The contestants follow a man's shirt pattern, show off their stitching skills and create a made-to-measure evening gown.
