| Editorial Review | "Starting with hand sewing and moving up to machine stitching, the 15 projects are designed to gradually increase a young sewer's skill set. Initial projects are a needle case and a tooth fairy pillow, both made by hand. Then, as confidence builds, the final project is a poncho with a separating zipper. It's guaranteed sewing satisfaction!" - The American Sewing Guild's Notions magazine
"This book is simple, well organized and inspiring! The projects are fresh and fun and any non-sewing parent would enjoy teaching their child the basics of sewing while learning how to sew themselves. The instructions are clear and supported by loads of fabulous and brightly coloured photos. I am so glad the authors chose to begin by teaching the basics of hand sewing as this is where it truly all begins in the world of sewing. The years of combined experience between the authors is evident in the organization of the projects and the skills they teach. Kudos to Janith and Christine! Seacoast Sewing will certainly be using this book in our kids' classes." - Jill Patsfield, Seacoast Sewing and Quilting |
