Pattern Drafting and Foundation and Flat Pattern Design - A Dressmaker's Guide Kindle Edition

DO NOT spend your money on this book! It appears to be a partial reprint from some older book and is incomplete. It doesn't tell you how to take body measurements and doesn't tell how the measurements they use in the examples were obtained. The book claims more information is available in chapter 5, but there are no chapters and no information on taking measurements. some pages have numbers, some do not. This is a British publication. Sentence construction and illustrations lead me to believe the original publication may have been in the early 1950's, maybe earlier. It's a small paperback book, 5 1/2 inches by 8 1/2 inches and 3/8 thick. Certainly not worth the asking price. The cover does not match the one shown on Amazon. Perhaps the original publication was complete and worth the price, but this reprint is probably not what you want. Had I seen an accurate review, I would not have purchased it.

Don't bother with this one. Rubbish! So old, hard to follow. Much better books out there...get anything by Margolis or sign up for Craftsy.

Am using this as a guide as I undertake to learn pattern drafting.
