New Fitting DVD--- "Fit Yourself by Yourself"

If you've followed along with me long enough than you know I'm all about the sewing resources. I recommend that everyone has a well stocked library filled with the best sewing resources on the market. They're an invaluable resource to any seamstress no matter the experience level.

Well I'm pretty satisfied with my book, textbooks, & DVD collection but every once in a while I run across something that I'd love to have. Well that happened today. I subscribe to emails from Silhouette Patterns and heard about an extension sale on her latest DVD, "Fit Yourself By Yourself" and just knew I had to add it to my collection. I own several of her DVD's and have always been pleased with the content and quality. Her "Achieving Great Fit with Muslins" dvd helped me when I was experiencing trouble with resolving my own pattern fitting issues. That and several fitting books helped me learn the steps on how to fit myself as well as other clients. Even if some of the information is familiar to me, just one new tip or idea can improve upon my sewing. That's what I go for. Plus, since I teach sewing lessons, I love to buy resources like these to share and recommend to my students.

When it comes to sewing I consider myself a lifetime learner. And I'm a very visual learner so videos are very helpful to me. I've learned ALOT in a short period of time due to some great resources. Anywho, I just wanted to pass this info on to anyone who's interested. It's on sale for $19.99 instead of $29.99 until 8/4. For the record I'm not getting any perks for my recommendation.  Just passing on some helpful info:)

  3. My biggest sewing treasures are my two DVDs. I'm a visual learner. I can see how that is a great resource for apparel sewists.

  4. I've been re-watching old VHS tapes of taped sewing shows from years ago and you are so right, there's always a nugget of info that you need to learn and appreciate now. Peggy is such a lovely person and she really wants people to sew nice things for themselves.

  7. I happened to run across Peggy Sagers silhouette patterns media inc. Someone recommended it the Janome forum, and I intend to get all of the Dvds. I am truly a person who learns by seeing. I like the way she explains how to fit pants. I've been afraid to use patterns and you would see that by the things I've made lol sewforreal-mamafiore.blogspot.com and I wear all of my mistakes.
