Summary: Excellent!
Comment: This is a great book to learn how to make patterns and also a great reference if you already know how. The pictures and diagrams are very detailed and helpful and the instructions are easy to read. I highly reccomend it!

Summary: [Knock off]
Comment: Okay, this book promises good stuff, but ... could it be any harder to understand? You basically need two books to interpret how to make a single pattern. Very vague. We use this book at FIDM and I think it would have been better if the two books we use were put into one. Use it if you must, because it is a good reference for children's and body suits. Also, the illustrations are better than most.
Rating: 3
Summary: It has its shortcomings
Comment: As an editor and proofreader, I'm very detail-oriented. I've chosen fashion design as my new career, and this is the book we use at college. I can't compare it to other patternmaking books, but I know that Armstrong's has problems and really needs a good editor! Occasionally, steps are missing and measurements aren't accurate, and both my classmates and my teacher have found it frustrating. If this is the best patternmaking book out there, it's a pity.
