The Tailoring Book: Measuring. Cutting. Fitting. Altering. Finishing (Dk)

This book had a lot of similarity with Alison Smith’s book “The Sewing Book”. Great pictures, easy to follow. Geared towards creating clothes from scratch. However, not much on how to alter clothes to fit better, or style improvements.

My two grandsons have suddenly got into designing and making some of their 'cooler' clothes. This book makes each step clear. Too soon for a photo - other than of 2 happy faces.

Bought for my daughter. Good illustrations and photos of techniques. She said she'll find it useful especially for sewing jackets.

The book itself is fantastic and I highly recommend it, my only issue is the condition I received it in because it arrived bent and covered in what I can only assume is mud. Not sure if this was due to the packaging and the weather we’ve had, but if Amazon could protect the books with plastic that would help a lot.

The language and pictures are wonderful reference to every single detail you're looking for
