August 08, 2009: There are tons of little bits of information in this book that I did not know, useful charts and formulas. If you are a window treatment seamstress or designer, this is a very good book.

May 29, 2008: I am the owner of a west suburban drapery workroom, exclusively for interior designers. I am a master drapery artisan, WFCP CWP and board member of WCAA Chicagoland. As an expert in this field, I probably own every style book published. This is by far the new Bible for workrooms and designers. It comes with a CD to print black and white line drawings of page size treatments designers can use for their client presentations. I highly recommend this book.
