Excellent Resource
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 5 years ago
If you enjoy making your own garments this book is a must have! The info is succinct and well organized in a very logical manner. Having a reference that describes how to manage difficult fabrics takes a lot of the guess work out of sewing, now I won’t be afraid to experiment outside my comfort zone.
Better than Fabric Savvy

Much better and more complete than Sandra Betzina's books on the same topic. Chock-full of everything you want to know about any kind of fabric and tricks on how to sew them.
You need this book!

This is one of the few books which I regard as a bible in the world of sewing and fashion design. I was a clothing designer in the garment industry for 15 years and am now a professor of fashion design. I tell my students that they need to own this book if they are at all interested in continuing in the business of making clothes. This answers all those questions about how to handle, construct, and use different materials and fabrics.

This book has become the most important book to me when making clothes. Using it before starting saves from many troubles. It not only explains how different fabrics behave, what threads and needles to use, but gives an extensive view also of the types of seams and finishes to use. The included hints are really valuable, giving a lot of inside information and experience. This book really saves time, material and patience.
a must have for all sewers
