Good instructions with photos, shows entire sequence how to sew a garment
This basic wardrobe selection, timeless classic never out of fashion. Can use many of them, there are modifications to the same style.The book shows how to sew different seams, with good explanations and photos. Even shows how to sew the entire garment, including when finishing seams - commercial patterns give you the sequence, but do not show when to serge or zigzag seam allowances, you need to figure on your own.Very good photos and a very useful book.

Really nice book to outline how to follow patterns and the basics of sewing clothing
When I was young my mom taught me how to sew - basic things. She really didn't go into teaching me how to read or interpret patterns or anything in depth like that. So while I certainly didn't lack knowledge or comfort in the basics of using a sewing machine I definitely felt blindsided when I tried to stick with a pattern for my first "big girl project" all these years later. I flipped through this book at a friends' home and decided to get a copy for myself. BOY AM I HAPPY THAT I DID. My comfort level with reading patterns and understanding the basics of a lot of sewing tools I was not super familiar with jumped exponentially. A really great book to get a good handle on the basics or a refresher for the person like myself who is struggling with pattern interpretation and assembly of pieces of a pattern for an item of clothing.

Beautiful and full of inspiration
Everything you need to get you going! It can be a bit difficult to follow at times for beginners, but it's nothing a YouTube tutorial video or two cant solve!
