Best Sewing Book Ever
Hello, this book is small, but wonderful. This is the best home decor sewing book I have found, the instructions are clear and helpful. There is a section on your sewing machine, seams, and everything I wanted to know was here. Finally after sewing classes and many other books, I finished my bedroom curtains, and I'm ready to do more. I can't believe I like to sew. Before it was a chore and made me cry in frustration, I wish I found this book a long time ago. Worth the money, I like the series but this book was the best.
A great help to a real beginer!
This book guided me step by step through many projects. Every step is explained in words and pictures, which made it very easy to follow along. I also found the knowing the parts of the machine section in the beginning of the book very helpful. At the end of each project several variations are suggested and explained. Some requiring greater skills, but still achievable ones by the average beginner. My only complaint was that after completing the duvet cover project and making a coordinating flanged pillow set, I realized that the book did not include instructions on making the bed skirt. The photograph that introduces the duvet cover project shows a bed skirt - I think a good addition to the book would be bed skirt instructions. This would allow the beginner to complete a bed redecorate project in the same easy to follow instruction manual.
Great Book!
Okay...I learned to sew in home ec. and havent since then (let's say 30 years or so)...and this book brought it all back. Wow, I made the best tablecloth in 2 days...great instructions...easy measuring and fabric guide! I am impressed
