Please note the book is available in three formats and price options; e-book (ASIN: B09BBQ7PD6), black & white paperback (ASIN: B09BGM15YP), and color-printed paperback (ASIN: B09BMLLSWB). The approach using basic mathematics is introduced here to create precise patterns of any desired dimensions. If you’re interested in the original designs, but may not want to draft patterns, the ready-to-use actual-size patterns (such as ASIN: B09CRQFRJ7 and more) may be a preferable option. ***
