A Stitch-by-Stitch Sewing Guide
Sewing is lots of fun! Putting your needle, thread and sewing machine to use allows you to create something unique, while also improving your skills and developing a real knack.
This sewing guide is an essential reference for anyone who wants to take up sewing or refresh their skills. With easy-to-follow instructions and pictures, the book sets out the vital basic steps, along with tips and the most important sewing techniques. From the simplest hand and machine stitches to creating seams and hems, tidying corners or making sleeves, waistbands and pockets, you will find everything you need to know about using your sewing machine covered in detail here.
An extra chapter is devoted to adjustments and repairs such as narrowing trousers or fixing rips and holes. Anyone eager to try their hand at a project will find their efforts richly rewarded.
