I ordered two Jan Minott books published in the 70's. As so many of us are on that "quest for for the perfect fit," I decided to treat myself to a couple of her books and see how they compare to other methods of fitting (and the other books I have in my my "library"). Purchased them from Amazon. I didn't pay for "expedited shipping" so I guess I'll be waiting 10 days to two weeks for delivery.
There ones I ordered are:
Coordinated pattern fit;: A manual of instruction for making personal basic patterns, introducing a new method of commercial pattern adjustment by Jan Minott
Fitting commercial patterns: The Minott method by Jan Minott (Unknown Binding - 1978)
Stay tuned on those.
Hope to get back into the sewing room this weekend.
Hi, Have you received the Minott books? I'm considering buying Coordinated Pattern Fit. What do you think of it?
ReplyDeleteHi Beth, the books are here and about all I've done to date is thumb through them. I like them both and I like the concept of Minott. I'm looking forward to "digging in" after the first of the year.
