Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced review copy of this book. All opinions are my own.
This was not at all what I expected! I went into this title thinking it would be a good introductory book on garment sewing, but instead discovered a wonderful resource for creating slopers with a good bit of body positivity thrown in. I will note, however, CWs for fat shaming and ED in the introduction.
The content was well written and easy to understand. The pictures are informative and make the process approachable.
