Welcome to the wonderful world of sewing! I started stitching at a young age and it’s a skill that comes in handy quite often. It’s satisfying to make your own creations and helpful to have the know-how to properly sew on a button. Whether you want pillows to match your couch, a bag to gift to a friend, or the perfect teacher thank you, you’ll find that sewing knowledge will open a lot of doors.
This book will introduce you to the basics of all things sewing. You’ll learn about the tools you need, the techniques to master, and then you’ll make 6 projects to build on your foundation of knowledge. It is a how-to guide for those new to machine sewing, but also a resource for experienced sewists. You will be ready to explore other avenues of sewing once you learn these basics; from home décor, to garments, to quilting, to handwork. The options are endless.
There is more than one right way to do many things, but there are also ways that will lead to the greatest success. Successful sewing is often in the details, so you’ll find helpful tips throughout the book to guide your focus. I always say that I want it to look handmade not homemade!
