CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Cool Couture -
This is a must-have book for sewers. The explanations are the best I have ever seen and the fantastic photos help you really "get it"!
- The home of teak outdoor furnitures
, simply quality bar stools
amazing book -
I have already used some of the techniques in this book. This book will teach you all the little tricks that your instructors in school didn't have time to teach you.
Cool Couture: Construction Secrets for RunwayStyle -
Kenneth King is one of my sewing mentors. In this book Kenneth shows you in very detailed illustrations how to put together Top Shelf clothing very simply. At the time I ordered this book I was designing a mans vest and the detailed illustration on piped pockets was very helpful and easy, so I decided to pipe the buttonholes also and added a few other details. Your clothing can look polished and top notch everytime, when you look great, you'll feel great too. Sign up for Kenneth's classes at:

If you're interested in ideas for beautiful clothes, this is it! -
I have both Cool Tricks & Cool Techniques and much prefer this later version. It's more organized, laid-out better, which makes it easier to read and understand. This is not the happy-hands-from-home manual, it is beautiful embellishment techniques that can take a ho-hum garment to a "Wow" show-stopper, without orbiting Mars - IOW, you don't look weird, you just look fabulous. If you're a crafter who wants to do something more with your artistic talent and learn some high-fashion tailoring techniques at the same time, this is a great book for you. I'm usually blase about these sewing how-to books as I know most of the techniques, but that is not the case here. Kenneth is very generous with his ideas and creativity. The only thing wrong with this book, is you do not fully experience his enthusiasm and passion for sewing - which is what I got with one of his workshops.
Great selections of branded hammocks at
- surely the ultimate teak furniture store!
Kudos to Kenneth -
Kudos to Kenneth King for once again demystifying the fine art of fashion sewing. Kenneth's ability to communicate via the written word, is top-notch and his diagrams and photos are clear and concise. If you have ever struggled to put in a zipper -- this is the book for you. His technique is worth the price of the book, plus it includes many other techniques that will kick up your sewing several notches. A must have for every sewer's/designer's library.
