Book Description
Nursery Decor for Beginners makes teaching yourself to sew not only easy, but also fun. Written for the absolute beginner, each project includes clearly detailed instructions and easy-to-understand step-by-step photos. Each project introduces and teaches techniques essential to building strong sewing skills. As they progress through the projects, readers will gain confidence as they learn to: measure, cut with accuracy, sew seams, finish edges, insert zippers, make and create all of the elements of a designer nursery at affordable prices.
Highlights: Special binding provides an easy-to-use format that allows the book to lay flat for easy viewing. Nursery accessories can be expensive. Making them yourself saves money and adds a personal touch. All projects are designed and tested by beginning sewers to ensure instructions are clear and complete. Includes a reference section on the basic use of sewing machines. Includes detailed instructions for selecting fabrics, notions, threads, and tools for each project. Quick references at the side of the page help the beginner understand "why." Contains "tips" that help beginners avoid pitfalls. Includes nine complete projects including crib sheets, a crib skirt and a bumper pad, as well as a number of variations to inspire creativity.
