Short and fat?
hee hee .... I got the book and there is also a companion video. I do suggest both. The video is great to see exactly what she's talking about, and the book is great to go back to for the details.
I must confess though that I departed from her technique in one area. After she irons her seams she places them under a ruler then weighs them down to make the seams stay put. I tried this and for the life of me (and I was using two very large, very heavy books) I can't get my seams to behave as well as she does, so I resorted to my old stand-by ... starch. I starch before I cut, and I starch the seams (after I've ironed the seam in place once). They're flat and they stay put.
