Review: A most important reference book for serious sewers. - This is a clearly illustrated with step by step directions for the person that is interested in coutour sewing. It is not a quick how to for people that want to complete their garment on a week end. Claire shares her vast knowledge expertly for the person that would like to create the highest quality garments. Her instructions could easily be followed by the less experienced seamstress. This book offers valuable information for the advanced sewist as well. The cd is a valuable added bonus. Very worthwhile book.
Review: Fantastic! - This is one of the best sewing books! I'm fascinated by the classic Chanel jacket because of it's iconic status and exquisite craftsmanship. I'm not one for designer labels, but I want a similar jacket for the quality. As a home sewer, it's one of those garments that done well, will be a source of pride for years to come. This book will help you get there. Three cheers for a book dedicated to the subject. I was wondering why this hadn't happened before. However, it is worth the wait! I love getting a sneak peak into Shaeffer's personal collection. The garment index makes interesting reading. On to the making of the jacket. Shaeffer starts at the beginning -- with suggested fabrics and a good pattern. Of course there is a section on the famous trims. There's a detailed resources section in the back of the book; you'll know where to go for what. The book assumes you can manage diagnosing and correcting any fit issues on your own. You'll do this with a toile. In terms of construction, this book breaks down a very daunting process into digestible chunks starting with the quilting. This is still advanced stuff and obviously includes tailoring. Please bone up on your hand stitches. There are chapters on buttonholes, the three-piece sleeve, edge finishing, hand-set sleeves, patch pockets and finishing. Perhaps my favorite chapter is "What Makes Chanel's Cardigan Jacket Different." I love it for the historical perspective. It helps ground you as you think about what you want your finished jacket to look like. In the DVD, you're walked through each step of the construction process. The DVD and the book can stand alone as complete instructional tools. Together, they are awesome. I will say that based on the reviews, I'd decided not to purchase Couture Sewing: Tailoring Techniques . After watching the DVD that accompanies this book, I will purchase Couture Sewing: Tailoring Techniques for the DVD. If the DVD instruction is as good as it is on this DVD, it's worth the purchase. If you want to make your own Chanel-style cardigan jacket, this book is a must. As other reviewers have mentioned, the techniques here are specific to construction a Chanel-style jacket, but they will help make you a better sewer as you apply them to other projects. This is a great addition to any sewing library.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful! And there's more...
*by D***N on October 3, 2013*

So wonderful to have this detailed how-to guide at long last, just as Claire's fans have always wanted! Nice job, everybody, and congrats to Claire on another publishing milestone! As you'll see on the book's Resources page (137), Claire and I put together a vast digital image library based on her fabulous Chanel collection, with over 600 close-up, annotated inside, outside, and under the lining shots that you can zoom in on and ask questions about. The reference in the book left off the link to it, so here it is, in amazon-approved style: go to shaefferonchanel[dot]blogspot[dot]com. If you love Chanel and really want the inside scoop on these amazing creations, we think you'll be thrilled by this earlier labor of love from Claire.
