Well, maybe, but she has enough savvy to watermark "her" work, supposedly.

 It really irks me that this woman takes her draft, charts, and diagrams 
traight out of Masaaki Kawashima's book (FUNDAMENTALS OF MEN'S FASHION DESIGN), 
oesn't credit him, and then puts her own watermark all over it like it is hers. 
 
nd I can't even find a place on this website to send her an e-mail to tell her 
hat I think about it.
 
 I wouldn't even care so much if she just credited her source.  Grr.
