Review: Tailor in the making - This Tailoring book has a wealth of pictures, steps and information on why things are done a certain way. It also shows several methods to fuse things (fusible, machine and custom). You could just look at the pictures and get the idea or concept.
Review: Thorough, concise, complete. - Great book; for learning, for referencing, and for doing. But don't expect to buzz through this one and come out on the other side a tailor. Nope. If you're an advanced-intermediate sewist as I am, you'll need to take your time reading this book. It's chock full of information, valuable information from start to ending. It talks about fabrics, linings, tools, patterns, fittings, construction, …You get the picture. If there's one flaw in this book, it's that the photos (and there are many helpful photos), the photos all display the makings of a woman's jacket. I'm just saying that if you're tailoring a man's jacket/coat it would be nice to see.... But hey, they're just photos, the words and instructions throughout the book are all gender neutral. Trust me, you won't be disappointed w/ this purchase. Keep in mind, just as tailoring takes patience, learning to tailor takes patience too. Enjoy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great instructional book
*by K***R on March 14, 2021*

I made my first tailored coat using thus book along with other references and it was a wonderful guide. t gives options to traditional tailoring techniques so you can take shortcuts when you need to. The biggest downside for me was the lack of contrast in some of the photos making it difficult to understand the directions. I realize they were trying to depict realistic looking garments, but it would have been easier had they used contrasting thread along with high contrast colors. I had to use a powerful magnifying glass to figure out some of the photos.
