Here is the definitive resource on the fine art of making shirts.
Author David Page Coffin shows how to create elegant, custom-fit
garments for a woman or a man that have a great tailored look and
fit perfectly. And, even more important, once you learn to make and
fit a shirt -- whether you have sewn for weeks or years -- your
sewing skills will be dramatically improved. David shares the
construction secrets of garments from the world's finest
shirtmakers. Discover how to duplicate and even improve on these
garments, using simple tools and techniques any sewer can acquire.
Includes 15 pages of full-sized patterns for collars, plackets,
cuffs, and pockets. In the companion video, Shirtmaking Techniques,
Coffin demonstrates the techniques that are the hallmarks of fine
shirtmaking and shows how to master rolled hems, flat-felled seams,
collars, cuffs, and plackets. "This book is great -- fresh, focused
information on shirtmaking. David Coffin's approach is
straightforward and logical...no sooner do you pose a question than
he answers it." -- Sandra Betzina, syndicated sewing columnist,
author of Power Sewing and More Power Sewing, and host of HGTV's
Sew Perfect

This book qualifies for the title the Bible of Shirtmaking. It covers not only the different components of shirts, but also shirt construction, and is FULL of sewing and design tips.
Anyone with basic sewing skills cannot fail to be inspired, and will learn skills that apply to all types of sewing. The designs and techniques covered apply to shirts for both men and women.
Highly, highly recommended!
