It looks like a great resource for those with interests between 1750 and 1917. (Unfortunately, I don't care about anything after 1650!)

I've dealt with them because they are also the U.S. publisher for "The Medieval Tailor's Assistant" and "The Tudor Tailor" but most bookstores don't carry their stuff. Of course you may forward the e-mails.

I've ordered direct from QSM before and they are a pleasure to deal with. Most of their books are worth buying sight unseen. I see they are expecting Patterns of Fashion 3 to be available in just a couple weeks now.

This is a great book! Some interesting patterns, on a grid. And some "projects": a hand made 18th century jumps and a machine made "girl's" 19th century corset....with instructions. Even some doll corsets. And some techniques explained. Each corset has a photo, a front/back "spread sheet", the pattern laid out on a grid and some details, like embroidery. **************Looking for simple solutions to your real-life financial challenges?
