Couture Sewing Technique

Couture Sewing Techniques, has been revised and updated throughout — with new photos and a chapter on specialty fabrics.

Readers learn all the basics — and more importantly: how to apply the techniques — on skirts and sleeves, pockets and jackets, evening gowns, and more. Gorgeous photos, clear illustrations, and concise language combine to make this the most complete couture-sewing course available.
