Book Reviews of How to Sew Leather, Suede, Fur

Book Review: Not what I expected and way out of date
Summary: 2 Stars

I was anxious to recieve the book becasuse I was going to start a project with a recycled mink coat I had purchased. When it did arrive, I was immediately put off by the lack of detailed pictures and steps provided to execute the listed projects. I found the instructions for the projects somewhat vague and realized that a lot of revision was needed in order for anyone to be able to follow what was going on. I must say that if one does not intend to actually begin a project or make a fur garment, the book itself is an interesting read and a great reference. Another review had said that if updated the book would be a great text for students, and I would have to agree.
