Sell me your Bra-Makers Manual?
I see one on eBay for $75!! Yikes! I make panties, but haven't been able
to make a decent bra yet. Do a Google search for "bra making", maybe you'll find some helpful information. "wurstergirl" wrote in message ups.com... I'm looking to buy a used copy of the Bra-Makers Manual by Beverly Johnson. Please let me know if you have a copy you could part with. Thanks. Pora |

No kidding on the price. Ouch! I'm sure hoping someone has one
they'll sell at a reduction. I've googled all over and haven't found anything cheaper yet... Pora |

Sell me your Bra-Makers Manual?
I meant Google for bra making techniques etc., not that particular book
(unless that's the only one you want). When I was trying to make bras, I found quite a few websites that had lots of useful information. "wurstergirl" wrote in message ups.com...

Try half.com and Hamilton Books (they have a web site, but I don't know what it is.) But I won't ever part with the one I bought from Lee-Anne Burgess, so I hope you find one. |

Sell me your Bra-Makers Manual?
Well, here's the website for the book itself and its author. (Take a
gander at some of the bras in the gallery, made by readers. Zowie!) http://www.bramakersmanual.com/ My understanding is that it's used as a textbook at fashion schools in lingerie courses. There is other literature too, but I'm thinking it's what I want. Don't know about reviews. It doesn't appear to have an ISBN, so it might not technically be officially published. Hmm, maybe textbook stores at fashion schools have used copies at reduced prices... Pora |

Hamilton does mostly remaindered books. A good source for those. http://www.hamiltonbook.com/hamiltonbook.storefront Half.com, eBay, and Amazon also list second-hand books from individuals. http://www.abebooks.com/ - ABE Books - is a site used by commercial booksellers around the world and is a good place to look for a rare, out-of-print book. Some not-so-rare, too. IIRC, Alibris lists with ABE as well as Half.com. A specialty site that may be worth checking is http://www.needleworkbooks.com/ I think you can also write to her to tell her you're looking for something and she will hunt for it. -- Joanne stitches @ singerlady.reno.nv.us.earth http://members.tripod.com/~bernardschopen/ |
