 Returning to sewing September 21, 2007
It has been a number of years since I sat down at a sewing machine. I definitely needed this extra help to get me reacquainted with using my sewing machine as well as sewing a outfit.
Great for beginners! September 10, 2007

This book is a great reference guide for sewing. It is comprehensive enough to cover a wide variety of topics that might be confusing for novices like me. My only complaint about this book is that more pictures would be helpful to accompany some of the more complex instructions.
 This book didn't work for me. July 28, 2007

I've been teaching myself to sew the last few months and in that time I've checked out all the books my library has to offer on the subject. Since I really like all the other "for Dummies" books that I have read I decided to buy this one sight-unseen to keep around the house as my reference. It's not a bad book but there are better books out there for those of us who are new to sewing or need a refresher in basics. If the book were organized differently I think I might like it more. Compared to other books of this type the information is not as well organized or easy to find. The illustrations are nice but again I've seen others that work better for me. I wouldn't say not to buy this book, but check it out first and make sure it's teaching (or refreshing what you already know) in a way that is useful to you. This book was not useful to me.

I have read small parts of this book since I picked it up. Some parts are very easy to follow, and very helpful to this beginner. It covers many different topics, which helps me think about different projects I could tackle. But some parts still need more explanation for me to understand -- drawings or breaking down the steps even more would be helpful.
great book for begginers June 1, 2007
