  • A Good Resource for Sewing!

    Although I've been sewing for many years, recently I've been interested in the Burda method of pattern editing for size and style. This book is full of detailed information, that is delivered in a straightforward and helpful manner.

  • Great for skinny gals

    Great book with plenty of illustrations and directions. The patterns are very easy to trace. But it is only for skinny, skinny gals! I wish the product description stated this!
