This classy book makes learning to sew an easy, creative, and absorbing occupation.  To get you started you'll find useful information on what to look for when choosing your first sewing machine, what other equipment you'll need, and which fabrics are easiest to work with.  All the basic skills- pinning, cutting, basting, and pressing - are covered, so you'll be completely ready to move on to mastering many other sewing techniques.

The pages are packed with detailed step-by-step methods covering all aspects of sewing with a machine, from the simplest straight seam through to the professional lapped zipper.  There are both practical and decorative techniques to explore, so you'll be able to make and embellish with confidence.  Whether you want to hem a skirt or set a ruffle into a seam, finish an edge neatly or sew a perfect dart, you'll find precise, clear instructions that will make you feel you've got a tutor at you side.

You'll also find seven specially designed projects that, although simple, don't skimp on style.  Make a garment, an accessory or a project for you home; you'll now be equipped to tackle every element.
