hi sewinglover I am a brandnew beginner in sewing, I wonder anyone have a book of instruction to cut formal jacket( a good one), every reply will appreciated thank you and sorry about my english



You have no reason to apologize for your English, it is far superior to my (non-existent) Indonesian! Are you wanting information on making formal wear for a man or a woman?

Although, I am not familiar with books/instructions on sewing formal jackets, I do want to welcome you to this sewing group. I am certain someone will help you very soon. Emily

Hi and welcome to the group and the world of sewing. If you are a beginner are you sure you want to start with a jacket? It is ok if you do. Here are a couple that I liked. Singer had a Tailoring book out that was good and I see that Palmer and Pletch have one out as well. Here are a couple places to look.
