Barbara Dee BennettVestments for All Seasons

I've sewed for almost 40 years. It is obvious that a lot of work and thought went into this book. But I can't use it, and I returned it. I was under the impression that it would have more samples or ideas for making chasubles, and it does have some. Other reviewers are right - the cost of these things can be outrageous. This resource is excellent for someone who is interested in making every kind of vestment there is - and google vestment if you don't know what you're getting into. If you are primarily interested in chasubles, this will be a disappointment. I guess I paid too much attention to the cover. Which is very nice.

I am a candidate for the ministry and many of the women in the congregation have wondered how to make vestments (especially stoles). This book provides a great background for reasons for certain vestment. I got this book as a gift for my church family.

Great read for new and experienced clergy!

Directions and suggested patterns though limited were imaginative and easy to read and follow.

A good book with easy to follow instructions. Have not actually used it yet, but have picked out what I want to start on.

Just what I was looking for! Clear & concise information.

This book has the basics needed to complete numerous kinds of vestments. It is an appealingly simple book with not-so-simple vestments broken down into small bites. Easy to read and easy to use.

Informative

Really useful guide.
