"The DVD is of two "Sewing with Nancy" shows for a total of 60 minutes. The first show covers general measurements and fitting top patterns. It also has a "Nancy's Corner" segment on quilts using Zulu designs.The second show covers fitting pants. "Nancy's Corner" segment is about quilts for the "Go Red" heart campaign. The pivot method is used throughout. Details covered in the first show are: right-size measurement (see below) and taking accurate measurements for the bust, waist, hip, hip length"

"I bought the DVD - instructions are very clear but appear to be limited to size 18 misses/petite and doesn't show how to adjust if you have sizeable width above and below the waist. Maybe the book does show how to work with these issues but I'm not sure I want to pay $20 to find out. Great DVD/book for those "normal" petites and misses. Not so much if you're a "real woman."
Note from Nancy's Notions Customer Service: If, for any reason, any product does not meet your expectations, return it for an exchange, refund, or credit of its purchase price. Contact us at 800-245-5116 or custserv@nancysnotions.com Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Time."

"I used the book to alter a princess-seamed dress pattern for a client who is a "right size" 14, but has a bust measurement of 41. I used the measuring guide in the book and followed the step by step directions, all of which were very clearly explained & diagrammed. I also added width to the upper arms, waist & hip. The only fitting area not covered in the book was the stomach, so I just added this measurement & adjusted pattern accordingly. The dress fit like a dream! This method really works!"
