This title and post have cracked me up!!! I should get a book like this and truly study fitting more. I get things to fit, but I want them to just fit without working on it. One of the reasons I like Burda so much is that I know the items will always fit. It is frustrating to get a new pattern company and try to figure out the size and fit.
IMHO this is the best fitting book out there. I love that there are good diagrams and descriptions to help you diagnose the problem, then good instructions for how to fix it. It has become my first reference to figure out problems. Hope you enjoy it and find it useful.
I'm 60+years old (don't know how I got here)! I live on an island with my husband. I have a daughter, son-in-law, and 2 grandsons, who are the light of my life.
My grandmother put a needle in my hand when I was 3 years old. I haven't put it down since.

Looks like a very good book. I love all sewing related books :)
Happy New Year to you too!
I need a book like this, too. You'll have to let us know if you like it.
Happy New Year!
I have the book. It's great! Happy New Year!!
Happy reading and sewing!
Gwen, I'd be interested to know what you love about it. I bought it this book. I hated it. I returned it!
Happy New Year Gwen!!
Thanks for the book recommendation. We can't have too many sewing books.

I have this book, and I like it too!
I love this book. It has some ways to adjust patterns that no one else shows.
Yup! This IS a good book. I take it out from time to time and read it for enjoyment. It's the sewing geek in me :) .
