More Fabric Savvy: A Quick Resource Guide to Selecting and Sewing Fabric Completely Revised and Updated
This is a must have book for anyone who sews. If you are starting out, it will save you a lot of frustration, money and fabric/supplies. If you are more advanced or a serious seamstress, it will help you to know the answers to all the questions that come up when handling multiple types of textiles. Each page on a fabric gives you all the information you need to know about that fabric, including what needle to use, what pressure foot to sew with, whether to wash or dryclean, line, how to hem, etc.
If I had this book when I was starting out over 30 years ago, I could have saved a lot of money. This is a great gift for someone who loves to sew.

Being very hesitatant at first about the book and the people telling me to get this book it's the greatest; well I've head that before. I have to state clearly "I WAS WRONG" this is the greatest book for sewing usage, but also, anytime you want to purchase material for any project whatever it may be you have to have this book. It gives you information such as; tells you the fabric, washing instructions, thread to use, needles, pressing, what foot to use on machine, and much more. This was for every type of fabric it's a "must have book".
WOW! August 13, 2007
Every sewer should have this book is detailed guidance on picking the right fabric and what needle to use to and even how to start sewing some of those harder fabrics without bunching or snagging. One of the best sewing books I have bought yet!
everymoment ready reference May 29, 2007
of course all the tailors know what to do for the fabric they just bought! there is still a new challenge hiding in the fabric store or something you never dared to try. this book will make you feel confident about the textiles, even when you were scared of trying them for long time. I have been sewing in the last 25 years and many of the experience results are here, with no need to throw away a wrong try. it is on my table, ready to refresh my memory or to inspire new patterns in untried materials. there are informations about needles, yarn, cutting, washing and suitable patterns, and the book remains open on the table!!!

I recently started sewing again. For someone who hasn't really sewn much since the cupcake pillow in the eigth grade, this book is invaluable. It's has proven to be an excellent resource on how to sew with all different types of fabrics. And it even has some great sewing tips sprinkled throughout the book. It's given me a little more confidence when sewing and that's just what I needed.
