Books on Alterations?

    Books on Alterations?
    on: August 08, 2011, 07:34:02 PM
    Can anyone recommend some good books on alterations or pattern making?  I am really comfortable using patterns and consider myself an intermediate seamstress.  I would love to learn more about alterations, making patterns, etc.  I appreciate any recommendations!
