Fast Fit by Sandra Betzina (2003, Paperback, Reprint)

If you are interested in fitting patterns to make garments for yourself or anyone, this is a "must have book". Any commercial pattern is a mere guide to start with when you are attempting to achieve a great fit from your clothes. This book is well organized and addresses almost any of the body adjustments to a pattern a sewist would need to reach that goal. I have used Sandra's suggestions from this book to craft a wonderful pants pattern that I will used again and again. I have been to one of her seminars and this book brings into clear focus all the details of pattern alteration she teaches. I find that I am constantly refering to the pages of this book for information I require to achieve a well fitted garment. Great reference!
