Well, the postman has been very good to me, by delivering both of these books today. Let's just say, I came home, opened the parcels and stuck my nose into these books. Somewhere along I think I had dinner 
.
I know these books have been praised here so many times before, but I just had to write this :sunshine: they're just so great - such a wealth of information in both of them, and so well presented!
Couture Sewing Techniques will certainly give me a lot to try out when I get around to sewing again - and the pictures of the clothes are just delicious, if I may say so
. I told my mom about the book and she went straight ahead to order her own copy.
Jonathan, wow, you included Minna Parikka in Shoes A-Z! I visited her boutique again last week on my Helsinki trip. I admit, I can't quite afford her shoes, but that boutique is such a delight to see...
