Kudos To...
Erica B. & Barnes & Noble (http://www.bn.com/). Recently, Erica B. @ D.I.Y. Style was questioned about her book resources. She so kindly listed her entire library with a photo of each book. I give her kudos for her willingness to share how she gets things done. She gives us an in-depth look at how to make sewing easier and I must say she did a very fine job. I took her choices and looked them up on BN.com and was very pleased that she had chosen books that are easy to read/understand and make you feel at ease about sewing. So with that said, I chose to add to my library a book that I most desparately needed. The very first chapter of this book is the most important to me. It describes how to obtain every measurement on your body. I am glad to say that I was able to pinpoint my trouble area instantly - the waist. Kudos is also given to BN since I was able to get the book used (and I must say, it had NEVER been used and I loved the price.) With that said, my choice from Erica's list is "Fast Fit" by Sandra Betzina. Enjoy!!!

That is a great book, I've enjoyed it for several years. Need to pull it off the shelf again.
I've got Fast Fit too and have used it successfully for quite a few things.
I'm still pretty new at sewing to fit me and so my books get used A LOT !!!
