REVIEWS

perfect
not perfect at all
The book is a very good basic resource.
Lots of practical material and has an incredible number of detailed photographs that go with the instruction.
Good images to illustrate instructions.
The focus of this book is FITTING !
The fitting-measurements pages are very good. (see under)
No instructions are provided for dresses, skirts, or jackets.
A bit scary for beginners because of its advanced levels.
The book is not unique and it has no extra "specials" about the sewing techniques.
The photograph and lay-out is very out-dated.

Notes:

We love the fitting part and the pages which you can copy for measuring yourself (or your client).  They are very extensive and ideal to take a moment to measure everything and keep it well. Pictures 3 + 4.
