  • Fast Fit for Female Figures

    It's a book about fitting so if that's what you are looking for, this fits the bill. I bought this because I have other books by Sandra Betzina. She covers lots of different fit issues, giving each one it's own section and focus. It's clearly laid out and easy to read. It's only getting 4 stars because of the focus on female fitting problems. It doesn't cover fitting problems for men. So isn't really a book for "pattern alterations for every figure". Just the female one. Not a problem if you only sew for women. Bit of a pain for those of us who sew for men to.
