Kiell Smith-Bynoe welcomes the 12 sewers to the sewing room as we kick off the tenth series celebrating Sewing turning ten. In the first week, judges Patrick Grant and Esme Young task the new sewers with challenges inspired by the very first set in our first series. For their first Pattern Challenge, it's a denim A-line midiskirt.
For the 90-minute Transformation Challenge, rather than altering the neckline of a T-shirt, they have to transform it into a completely new garment.
Finally, in the Made-to-Measure, the sewers meet their models for the first time to make their interpretation of a casual day dress.
Who will impress the judges and win Garment of the Week, and whose hopes of staying in the competition won't last beyond week one?
