the sticker on the front was no big deal at all. the seller was upfront about it in the description which i appreciate. it came off easily with a bit of alcohol and scraping. there was a rip in the package when i received it, but i know that wasn't the sellers fault- definitely the post office. shipping was quicker than i expected and the book is in amazing condition. super excited to start reading since i just finished the first book and the price? such a great deal and find! seller is fanastic

  • Claire Shaeffer's Fabric Sewing Guide 1995

    I like that it is comprehensive. This is very detailed it is also a very large book 532 pages. Part 1 covers Fiber content, 2 Fabric Structure, 3 Surface Characteristics, 4 Linings and Interfacings, 5 Sewing Techniques, 6 Fabric and Fiber Dictionary. There is also and appendix which covers needles, thread, etc. This is a great book, but I would have liked it tabbed for quick reference, or better yet in removable notebook form so I could make smaller books out of it. A quick reference section would be great too.

  • A VERY DETAIL BOOK ON FASHION FABRIC.

    I HAVE OTHER BOOKS BY THE SAME AUTHOR, SHE ALWAY GIVE A GREAT PROSPECTIVE OF THE HOW, WHY,AND WHEN IT COME TO CREATING YOUR OWN FASHION GARMENT. THIS BOOK COVER WHAT AND WHEN TO THE RIGHT FABRIC FOR THE GARMENT.

  • Fabric Sewing Guide

    One can be overwhelmed by the kinds of fabrics, needles needed etc.when choosing a project. To have a reference guide when you receive fabric store brochures helps the beginner and intermediate sewer understand value and use of these materials. Claire Shaeffer writes clearly and thoroughly about these fabrics.

  • Very good.

    I was everything I wanted. I bought this and another book called the encyclopedia of stitchery. The second book is like a sewing bible!!! I am very pleased to buy books on ebay. and the opportunity to search by ISBN number makes finding what im looking for very easy. Go Ebay.

    This is a wonderful reference for people who sew. I have used it often. I already had this book and liked so much that I purchased this one for my daughter.
