Costuming: Pattern & Book Lists....
EDIT: updated 6/12/7
This is an updated list both of patterns that I own and patterns that I want. Additionally, I've listed some book titles that have caught my eye. I'm not sure about all the book titles, but there are some for certain that I know are good reference materials.
This is just to help me keep everything organized and also to give myself a checklist as I pick them up...
