Reviews
Why do professional seamsters assume, for example, that inserting zippers is an easily mastered skill? Or that with a few lessons, most of us can emulate the wizardry of a Donna Karan? Bergh breezes through all facets of sewing women's apparel, showing couture association and assuming no sewing-challenged reader exists. For sure, the instructions for each finish, part, and technique are immaculate, enhanced by simple narrative and plenty of hand-drawn illustrations. Most of the variations for, say, hems are well documented (albeit in British English). No actual patterns are included; nor is real-time construction of one item featured start to finish. But this makes for a good reference. Barbara Jacobs
