Thank you for the review and showing us the clothes you can make. I was on the fence about it and your video showed me that the designs aren't a good fit for my plus sized body. So yay for saving money and being able to spend it on fabrics!
I have purchased this book and it is superb. I love the clean simple lines of the designs.They are the sort of clothes one expects to find in high end fashion.The photography is stunning and the quality of the book is first rate.
In love sewing magazine issue 60 (out now-red background cover colour),they have this book free with a subscription to their magazine. Thanks for this,it's really great to be able to see if a book patterns suits you.The quality looks stunning.
Well done, you are absolutely the best. Pretty excited too. Looking forward to getting mine so I can try some new projects and make more videos😀😀 I love chunky books, makes great paper weights too😍😍😍😍
Finally got it, mainly because of the knit knot dress and the dress with ties. But now i feel like I want to use it as a sewing course and go one by one to learn all the bits the sisters prepared! Which is even better!
Less than 2min in and your told me exactly what I wanted to know, you can get the patterns as PDFs🎉I detest tracing and knew there would be no point buying the book of I had to do that!!! Many thanks, gonna watch the rest of the video now 😊
Thankyou for the review I was very interested in buying this … for me it’s probably a no though the print looks to be that very pale grey that I have trouble seeing 😢
Thank you for yet another great review! I love Named clothing patterns and had this book in my wish list. I’m afraid that there’s only one pattern that I feel is for me so thank you so much for also letting us know that they are available as a PDF... I assume you can buy these without initial purchase of the book?!? If that’s the case then you have saved me some money!! More fabric.....🤫😉
Great review. I was on Amazon.ca $39.49 (Canadian) free shipping for prime members. Not available until November 20 2018. I can’t wait,I pre ordered it. Thank you. Val 🇨🇦🇬🇧❤️
Hi, thanks for the review! Do you know why it is called Breaking the pattern? I thought it would be full of possibilities how to adjust patterns or something like that.
Thanks for the review. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that enjoys the smell of a good book lol. You mentioned UK size, would you happen to know what that would be US size?
If you have not bought this book... stop what you are doing and go out and get it! I received my copy earlier this week and the only problem that I have with it is, WHAT AM I GOING TO SEW FIRST! Lol. 😊
Hi Kate, love this book. Thanks for the review, I received my copy the next day (after watching your review). I could make every single design with all the options! I’ve combed the book and can’t find any reference to getting the PDF’s. I’m a bit disappointed that it doesn’t seem possible to get pdf copies (in addition) having purchased the book. Often written pattern quarterly books in the knitting world have this option. I think you mentioned something about the pdf being available in your review. Do you know how to go about this ? Thanks x
Hi Gill, I’m sorry you’re not feeling happy about the book. It does say everywhere that you can get the PDFS alongside the book but having had a look myself I can’t see how you go about this. I’ve dug out their email and they’re really nice so I’m sure they’ll point you in the right direction: info@namedclothing.com
Thanks for getting back so quickly. I do love the book and everything in it but I would like to get a pdf for the patterns. I like to copy and make up in envelopes. I’ve written to Named Clothing as you suggest and will hopefully sort the issue. Thanks x
it is in fact a very nice book with really classic garments and I almost refused it because your review gives totally wrong impression about the book. According to what you were showing, there are only frills, slits, ties... all the teenage staff that everybody is so tired about already and that for some unknown reason is considered "interesting". Saying that frills are cool is about the same as calling racer-back original while it is everywhere for years and years and nothing could be more boring.

I'm a painter contractor in the US and eggshell is a type of sheen. Love this book and love your Pod cast. Keep up the great work.

😜liking for that page sniff when she was describing paper quality
Well done, you are absolutely the best.
Pretty excited too. Looking forward to getting mine so I can try some new projects and make more videos😀😀
I love chunky books, makes great paper weights too😍😍😍😍
I love traceable patterns on decent weight paper, PDF patterns drive me mad, lol.
Finally got it, mainly because of the knit knot dress and the dress with ties. But now i feel like I want to use it as a sewing course and go one by one to learn all the bits the sisters prepared! Which is even better!
Thanks Kate, great review. Some beautiful patterns. Thanks for sharing as always x
❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you for a brilliant review of what looks like a must have book, I had been wavering but now I am definitely getting it so thank you 😊
I am buying this as I watch. Beautiful in its simplicity. The designs all have an understated elegance.

Love the look of this book certainly on my Christmas list.
I always smell books!!! this one is on my wishlist but i might not be able to wait until Christmas after your review :)
I love named patterns. I wish you had shown the pattern pattern paper.
Thank you for that wonderful review! I thought about to buy the book, but now won't, because I expected another style.
Thank you for the review! Tbh, there's nothing in it that is my style, but thank you! I was going to buy it but I will think again.
Hi, thanks for the review! Do you know why it is called Breaking the pattern? I thought it would be full of possibilities how to adjust patterns or something like that.
Lol actually eggshell gloss is a thing..... It's a sheen option in paints.
Love your book reviews , ! There one called sew Japanese , i think kids clothing thinking of getting maybe.
I can't wait to get my copy!
Thanks for the review. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that enjoys the smell of a good book lol. You mentioned UK size, would you happen to know what that would be US size?
The named clothing website lists the us sizes. They begin at a size 2
Is there a section in the book about increasing the pattern size for each pattern not just the basics page
If you have not bought this book... stop what you are doing and go out and get it! I received my copy earlier this week and the only problem that I have with it is, WHAT AM I GOING TO SEW FIRST! Lol. 😊
i cant believe it!! As of this minute, this is now 25 quid to buy off amazon!! :(
Thants for video , I like to have it now 🤓🧵👗

@@gillmiller5193 They said on Instagram that the PDFs will be available soon on their website.
it's on my Christmas list, but now I've watched this I might have to order one asap - particularly like the top at the beginning
Wonderful video. Can you tell me the largest misurements ? Bust, waist, hips? Thank you

I was interested to see this book in more detail as thought I’d like it for Christmas. The only bit that bothers me is the Burda like lines to trace 😁
Adorable 💝💝💝😁👍
Are you able to tell me please if there are any pants patterns? 🤗
Yes there is one trouser pattern 👊🏻
Thank you 😊

Oh my, I was thinking the same thing, like is there anything in this book I can wear to work (elementary art teacher, a physical and messy job).
