Sew Your Own by John-Paul Flintoff, described as "one man's attempt to survive economic meltdown, tackle climate change and find the meaning of life by making his own clothes" . I had first seen the book on So, Zo's blog last year and thought it looked worth a read.
The book was mine for a mere 30p. But want to know the best bit?

It's a signed copy! Complete with a hand drawn pair of Y-Fronts. I didn't find that until I opened it when I got home. Now I just need to change my name to Elizabeth........

I've just read it, it's very interesting. No free y-fronts in my copy though!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cool find! That sounds like a fab read, I'll have to look out for it.x
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome, and what a hilarious little autograph. More people should use that when they sign things. ;)
ReplyDeletewow, that's amazing! great find.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! What's wrong with Elizabeth, why would she get rid of her signed copy!?! And i want to know the story behind the underwear drawing…
ReplyDeleteI know - I thought it was pretty ungrateful! He mentions on the inside cover about knitting a pair of Y-Fronts so maybe referring to that. Will let you know when I've read it!

ReplyDeleteI've just donated my copy to a charity shop! My name's not Elizabeth though so that wasn't mine. Happy reading
