Highly suggested buy!
Kristiann is not only and extremely kind woman, but her talent and beauty shines in everything she does -- including this book!Sadly, unlike her online patterns, this doesn't include a copy shop version of each block, so you have to cut and tape each piece together. It's so worth it because if you run into any troubles, Kristiann will personally walk you threw it, sending her own step-by-step images. She even sent me other patternmaker's sewalongs to help me!The whole book is interactive, so a computer is a must. Considering her patterns are $14-19 a pop, this book is practically robbery!Every pattern is made for a B cup and someone 5'8"-5'10", so keep that in mind; however, even if you're a novice, she'll personally walk you through pattern alterations, as does her book.

A Spiral Bound Treasue Trove of Gorgeous Innovation
Absolutely wonderful book. While I am also a fan of the many "skater"-esque/fit-and-flare dress patterns out there (and indeed buy them alllllll up as soon as they hit the internet), this book is a breath of fresh air with fashion-forward designs, gorgeously creative styling, and basically a book full of looks that the indie pattern world has not yet seen. Not just a book with one or two new looks, a WHOLE BOOKLOAD OF NEW DESIGNS! I was amazed that one designer could come up with so much innovation! Seriously, buy this book.

Great except for the CD
Really nice book, but please use a digital download next time!! So few new computers for the average user have disc drives (and none of mine do). In this world of light and mobile devices I guess I will go to my parents' house hoping that they have a computer big and old enough to open a CD? Otherwise beautiful, lots of nice options and great instructions.

good for someone beginning their sewing adventure
Wonderful format with beautiful photos and good instructions make for a good starting point. Explains in great detail each element, how to put these together to create various dresses - could be countless garments.The book is ideal for someone who is starting out and doesn't have a pattern collection and hasn't experimented combining them.And though the book is a very nice format, I am not inspired to make any of the dresses/combos.

Good style
Went through the book and looks pretty good. Really nice you can mix the patterns to suit your style. Gives step by step for each pattern. Downside is you have to print out the pattern.
