I love this book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I was looking for a resource for shirts, and I checked out "Shirtmaking" at my library, but I found this book to be more informative, at least for what I was looking for, than the other. There's more tips in here that the latter and it's quick to read through due to the step by step pictures on it. I think the best part of the book is the part about easing in a sleeve cap with the differential feed of the serger. It's just genious!
