  • Great Book for the garment maker!

    If you make garments and are ready to take it to the next level this book is a great addition. It instructs you on changing patterns radically. I have not gotten into pattern making per se but adding, subtracting and changing them. I have a made a basic fit bodice, skirt and pants and from these and this book, I feel empowered. It has much needed instructions on knits, fitting children, athletic wear and men's wear. It is a comprehensive tome on sewing. Nice illustrations too!
