4.0 out of 5 stars
I was too intimidated by the "system" for drawing the patterns,
This review is from: The Edwardian Modiste: 85 Authentic Patterns with Instructions, Fashion Plates, and Period Sewing Techniques (Paperback)
My title says it all - I ended up returning the book, knowing that I would never be able to broach the system the author uses for drawing up the patterns. But, if you have a mathematical mind, or a draftsman/engineer partner who can help, you will have an enormous wealth of very valuable information and patterns at your fingertips. A very good "bang for your buck", where any-era garment patterns are incredibly expensive. Highly recommended, if accompanied by engineer :)

An Essential for the Edwardian Wardrobe,

This review is from: The Edwardian Modiste: 85 Authentic Patterns with Instructions, Fashion Plates, and Period Sewing Techniques (Paperback)
This book is remarkable! It has everything you could possibly need for a complete Edwardian wardrobe, including undergarments (except corsets). I was a little intimidated when looking through it, but when you draft up the patterns it is actually remarkably easy. The jacket I made fit on the first try. A little knowledge on linings is needed (if you want them) because they are not included in the patterns. A fabulous book and I highly recommend it!

Thanks Fran, this book is great. A good selection of pattern which should keep me going for a while. I like the style and layout of the book. Plenty of additional information. I also bought After a fashion, which is a great companion to getting the correct look for the period.
