I have used this placket pattern and it is great. It is the same as in David Coffin's book. However, I did not think about using the steam-a-seam. Great idea.

Threads is my favorite magazine.
I will never give up on the actual magazine with all of the great information and wonderful pictures. But it is so nice to have all of the information ever published in Threads at you fingertips on the DVD.
Thank you Taunton for putting together this DVD.

I would like to learn how to make a boned lining for formal wear.

For corners, the instruction was to trim 1/4" from the corner then complete the stitching off of the corner. Do you trim 1/4" at a diagonal from the corner? A picture to illustrate this point would most helpful.

Thank you.

I glanced at the magazine and was really impressed with the information that was included. Threads is my all time favorite magazine.
