Re: Book Giveaway: "Schiaparelli & Prada: Impossible Conversations"

Oh my! This looks like a wonderful book. I would love to make this a part of my sewing and design library and get some great ideas for my next project.

Re: BOOK GIVEAWAY: A Field Guide to Fabric Design

Just been learning about silk screening and I have been reviewing some books on embellishment techniques. This book looks quite interesting and something I am ready to try. Sew. . . what's next. . .?

Re: DVD GIVEAWAY: Industry Insider Techniques with Louise Cutting Volumes 1-4

I have watched a few of the DVDs from Threads and they are great. I always enjoy learning from the Masters. It's one thing to read about a technique, but much better when you see it done. Kind of like the concept "A picture is worth a thousand words. . ." Thanks for this Give Away opportunity.

Re: Book Giveaway: "The Chronicle of Western Costume" by John Peacock

I think that all fashion is interesting. I had an instructor who said that there is nothing new to create in fashion and that it has all been done before. Yes a sleeve is a sleeve, skirt a skirt, pants are pants, but I think the great thing that one can see in this fine book is that with these basic elements there is an infinite combination of clothing that can be created by varying colors, fabrics, and the length and widths of these basic elements of sleeves, skirts and pants. I would be very pleased to be the new owner of “The Chronicle of Western Fashion” and use this book to create my infinite looks.
