The silhouette of a garment is often defined by the waistline. Whether
it's a dress with a fitted top and body-skimming bottom or a pair of
pants that sits at the natural waist and lies flat over the hips, your
clothes should fit and flatter your figure. A well-made waistband is the
key to a great-fitting and comfortable garment. Whether you are looking
for a casual drawstring, a comfortable elastic or a tailored seam-this
book will teach home seamstresses how to create waistbands to suit a
variety of garments and styles.
