Review #3: Thin but MIGHTY





Review #1

Good reference book for your sewing library.

I have many books on sewing/fitting pants in my stash of reference books. This is another good one to go to if you're in to trying to get that perfect fit. It has good illustrations, instructions and colored photos. It goes into such things as: taking accurate measurements, choosing the correct pattern size to begin with, adjusting commercial patterns, instructions on a fix for specific fitting problems, changing basic patterns into other styles, inserting a fly zipper and adding elastic to a waistband for comfort. I would definately recommend it if you're looking to perfect your pant making. I wish there were just one book that had all of the answers, but until then, this is a good addition to your library.




Review #2

Buy this!

If you are looking for a book that will tell you everything you want to know about making the perfect pants with good diagrams as well, this is it. I can't think of a single situation that it doesn't cover.




Review #3

Thin but MIGHTY

This book may be thin in size but it is MIGHTY in the information contained. I'd taken a leave of absence from sewing and changed shapes in the meantime - older patterns didn't fit anymore. With the help of this book, I'm back in business AND have learned all kinds of things I wish I had learned years ago. Can't say enough good things about this very easy to understand, logically presented book. Way to go Lynn.
