CHOICE Review
Lyons (instructor and costume designer, Univ. of Wisconsin, Whitewater) provides a clear plan for teaching beginners the basic sewing skills necessary for entry-level workers in a theatrical costume shop. The book is well laid out with a clear lesson plan and images to aid readers. Lyons offers 15 one-hour sessions that can easily be worked through with or without the guidance of an instructor. Each chapter concludes with a set of review questions (correct answers are given the back of the book). Unfortunately, however, many of the samples demonstrated are done incorrectly, and the instructions are likely to misinform readers as to proper sewing techniques and skills needed in the profession. In addition, many of the illustrations are too dark or cluttered with busy fabric patterns. Although the author seems well intentioned, the book clearly misses the mark. Summing Up: Not recommended. --Kathryn Wagner, Western Michigan UniversityNotas de autor provistas por Syndetics
