Produktbeschreibungen
From Library Journal
Debut titles in Taunton Press's new sewing series, these guides take both new and experienced sewers completely through the construction process of a particular garment. Podolak, contributing writer to Threads Magazine, is quite expert in breaking down the construction of the jacket. Organization of chapters is very logical, starting with selection of style, fabric, and customizing fit. There is an outstanding section on pressing and shaping fabric. The presentation throughout is crisp, and photos and diagrams are frequent and well placed. Likewise a contributor to Threads Magazine, Tilton follows the exact same format, with special sections and help tips unique to the garment. Both texts are polished, professional, and wonderfully written. This series compares favorably with "Singer Sewing Reference Library" series, which focuses on fabrics, fit, children's wear, etc. Taunton's new series is all garment-specific, and though the format is redundant, it works well. Highly recommended for public libraries.?Karen Ellis, Baldwin Boettcher Lib., Humble, Tex.

Kurzbeschreibung
Aimed at the needleworker who has nothing more than the basic skills, this book suggests simple techniques for use alongside a commercial pattern, to create jackets with the appearance and finish of professionally tailored garments. Tips and techniques include pressing while sewing, using fusible interfacings for shaping jackets, setting in professional-looking sleeves with bias strips, making perfect patch pockets, inserting a lining by machine, sewing easy sleeve vents, and invisible hems that keep their shape.

Format:Taschenbuch
It is a very helpful, nicely written book with beautiful photographs. After borrowing it from the library, I would like to purchase it for a reference. I am at an intermediate sewing level.
Format:Taschenbuch
This book covers everything you need to know to make a very basic, collarless jacket. Topics discussed include silhouettes, accurate measuring, fabric and interfacing choices, fitting, seam finishes, and step-by-step instuctions on assembling the jacket. However, the book does not cover welt and bound pockets (only patch pockets are included), bound buttonholes, collars and lapels- especially the notched collar. Tailoring and shaping are also excluded. (For a good overview of all of these techniques and some other goodies, check out Claire Shaeffer's "Couture Sewing Techniques; Taunton Press, 1993) The book is perfectly suited for those who may be wary of undertaking a jacket. The instructions are clear and there are many photographs. There is even a section that breaks down the sewing steps for a weekend jacket project, which is encouraging.

Best Book for Beginning Tailoring
8. August 2006
Format:Taschenbuch
Like the other reviewers, I borrowed this book from the library, and it was so helpful, I decided I had to buy it.
I'm an advanced beginner sewing my first tailored jacket. I followed the instructions for sewing set in sleeves (hair canvas bias strips, sleeve headers, shoulder pads), and the sleeves and shoulders turned out looking almost as good as the ones on a $500 jacket. It was my first attempt, and I was amazed.
I've seen other books on tailoring, and this one is superior in every way. True, the book doesn't cover collars, lapels or welt pockets, but what is covered is done thoroughly and professionally. And as the author points out it's best not to attempt too many difficult procedures on your first jacket.
In short, if you're eager to make a simple but professionally tailored jacket, Cecila Podolak's book is absolutely must reading.
