 Great Book January 5, 2007
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is very good in explaining things to the novice and experienced. I think it is a good addition to every seamtress library. Very good book!
very easy to learn November 14, 2006

this book really breaks it down in the simplest form possible. it's hard to learn how to sew by just reading a book without any hands on experience, but this helps you visualize, and it is written in plain english. if you haven't sewn in your life, or never picked up a needle and thread,this book is definitely for you.
 Well, it wasn't as helpful as I had hoped. February 23, 2006

This book still provides the basics, some terminology and such...but the patterns that are "included" are outdated by about 20 years. That was very disappointing since the instructions refer to these patterns and that feature was a big selling point for me, so as to practice the actual tips and learn with the book before spending more money at the fabric store!
good book for beginers February 22, 2006

Explains the basics of sewing. I used this book while taking a begining sewing class and I feel it explained some of the points that the instructor left out.
 Horrible. May 12, 2005

Yes the dummy series are good for some of their books (Computer for dummies, or whatever) but they do not know everything. I am very disappointed with this book. It is NOT for the 'New to sewing' people. (not for dummies!) It's not the worst books, but I have a few better books in my collection that are great for reference. I think that the Complete Book of Sewing is a clearer book for new sewers. It has a lot of pictures, that the Sewing for Dummies lacks! But it is up to you. I do own this books, but I use it very little, if at all.
