New stuff on the Net!

Perhaps there will be a rebirth of interest in the trade after all!

I'd like to announce the launch of two new sites dedicated to the discussion of the craft of tailoring-

Jeunes Tailleurs

and

The Cutter and Tailor

The former being geared toward students of the craft and the latter more a meeting place for working cutters and tailors to talk shop.

I'd also like to give a shout out for an upcoming book by a friend of mine. David Page Coffin, of Threads and Shirtmaking lore, has a new book coming out on trouser making; geared toward the amateur tailor but full of incredible photos which could be of interest even to the pros, you can check out the preview for the DVD which accompanies the book on his blog, as well as a few other interesting projects.

JUST FOUND A NEW ONE!

A great blog on women's tailoring in Mayfair, London.
