A must for all costumers!,
By Jennifer Miller (Arlington, Virginia United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Costume Technician's Handbook: A Complete Guide for Amateur and Professional Costume Technicians (Paperback)
I am a former student of Rosemary Ingham's, now graduated and working as the Costume Shop Supervisor for Signature Theatre in Arlington, Va. I use her book almost everyday. Her instructions for sewing, altering, and patterning are easy to understand, clear, and concise. Plus there are great visuals to go along with the words by her writing partner Liz Covey. I can't wait until the next edition is complete. This best thing about it is that you don't have to be a professional costumer to use this book. A must for all sewers.

By Laura - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Costume Technician's Handbook: A Complete Guide for Amateur and Professional Costume Technicians (Paperback)
I am a student costumer and I hav had nothing but good experiences with teh Costume Technician's Handbook. I finally learned to draft my own patterns from this book - a skill no teacher has ever been able to drive into my skull. This is an absolute necessity

An excellent resource for the beginning costumer,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Costume Technician's Handbook: A Complete Guide for Amateur and Professional Costume Technicians (Paperback)
I was introduced to Rosemary Ingham's book when I was in college getting my degree in Technical Theatre. It was from this book that I learned to draft patterns, an event that forever changed the way I work, giving me the freedom to design for myself. While the lack of color illustration makes for some very dry visuals, the information is invaluable.
