What is Reddit's opinion of Ahead of the Curve: Learn to Fit and Sew Amazing Clothes for Your Curves?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Cashmerette's new book is already a best seller on Amazon just from pre-sales, it's not even out until October. Ahead of the Curve: Learn to Fit and Sew Amazing Clothes for Your Curves

I wanna like it, but sometimes her designs seem frumpy to me so I think I am going to wait to order a copy.

And Muna and Broad will scale a pattern up for you if there line isn't large enough. These women are great. Muna and Broad design simple modern pieces, Cashmerette designs patterns that are often more complicated and fitted. Her new book about fitting is fantastic, and it comes with patterns too. Highly highly recommend.

It’s not a straightforward process.

I’d recommend Ahead of the curve

As a new sewist, some of the benefits of patterns is learning sewing techniques (even if the instructions are a bit cryptic)

Penguin and Pear is a YouTuber that had a video on it and reviews plus size patterns, and sometimes pattern tests.

For endless general knowledge Professor Pincushion

But ultimately, learn to sew basic garments (bodice, skirt, trousers) for the order of assembly and general knowledge, then create your own slopers (basic garment templates that fit you perfectly) which you can then modify into any style you like.
