Another Great Learning Aid
by Customer A1B3BTBOZGQJ58 at January 12th, 2008
This book is very helpful for a beginner but, like the other books that I ordered I wasn't able to sew after reading it. I've used it as a reference on several projects and it's helpful to have around and easy to follow. It has been worth the cost for me.
Good Tip Book
by Customer A1KH0UTT1JQXVM at January 05th, 2007
I thought this to be a very good tip/reference book for those just beginning to sew. I am past that stage so I am keeping this for when I teach someone else.

by Customer A21N04CD18DDJ6 at November 10th, 2006
I bought this book for my daughter-in-law who is learning to sew. It covers basic sewing information and the illustrations are great. I recommend it to a beginner as well as someone who sews a lot as a wonderful reference guide.

Moderately useful but not complete
by Customer ATKM0BR88AEZD at February 16th, 2000
This small volume is handy for quick reference when you just can't remember that hand stitch but it's not as comprehensive as other books. Still, it's good to keep in the car or suitcase for emergencies.
