Flat Pattern Fashion Design - Mastering Apparel Creation with the 6th Edition Review

According to my experience, this product is a complete waste of money. As someone who enjoys Arts and Crafts, I was expecting more than a basic overview of flat pattern sewing techniques. The instructions given were vague and difficult to follow, and the end result was disappointing. The only pro was the price, but even that wasn't worth it for the lack of quality content. Save yourself the frustration and look for a more comprehensive resource.

We used this book in my costume class 2 but it was very expensive so I borrowed it from friends. When I found it online for only $15 and it was a hardcover edition, I couldn't help myself. If anyone is looking for a pattern book, this book is a must. GREAT stuff and explanations on how to make things.

I love this book, it is easy to understand, clearly written and very helpful when it comes to modifying existing models. She answered many questions I had about calculations and I returned to her with some regularity. The book is not for beginners, but somewhere in between. If you know how to bypass the pattern, I think this book will take you to the next level.
