SynopsisSewing 101 is a modern-day primer on the basic skills and techniques of sewing. This book is geared toward the absolute novice and assumes you know little or nothing about the craft. Filled with lots of step-by-step photos, useful sewing tip sidebars, and a painstakingly detailed glossary, Sewing 101 teaches you how to sew successfully. You will learn terminology used regularly in sewing, as well as all the basic skills that are the building blocks of the art. From threading the machine to sewing a straight stitch, to more complicated procedures such as installing zippers and following patterns, everything is covered. Chapters include such topics as: the sewing machine and its accessories, sewing supplies and how to use them, how to shop for, prepare, measure and cut fabric, and more. Each new technique is taught via the creation of an actual project, such as a pillow, window treatment, t-shirt, or baby blanket, thereby allowing you to learn a new skill and create an item to wear, display or use in your home.

  • Best learn to sew book you could own

    This book will teach most anyone how to sew, and learn sewing terms. The photos are very large and leaves nothing to the imagination. many ideas for pillows, drapes, and many other home items. A perfect book to have if you want to learn to sew and have no one to teach you. The section on learning the machine is dated but the information is still useful and accurate. I have bought two of these books to give as gifts to people who want to learn to sew and they loved it and have become wonderful seamstress.
