True sew everything book
by Customer A3J8QRIVUTUMD1 at August 12th, 2008
This book is not for beginners. You need to understand the different concepts of sewing and cunstruction. But it is a great reference guide for sewing pretty much anything. I love having this book on my shelf, it comes in handy. If you want more of a beginner book, the "Sew Fast Sew Easy" and "Sew On" books are better. Happy sewing!

The shipper sent the book on time and in expected condition.
