Excellent reference book

This is a must have for your sewing reference library. It has lots of details including tips and tricks, types of sewing machine feet and how to use them and a sewing terms reference guide. It's easy to understand and has pictures so even the inexperience sewer could start creating projects right away. The various projects/items are also graded by difficulty. Easy projects have one star and more challenging projects has 3 stars. The experienced sewists can also benefit from this book as well because there are also tips to improve your sewing experience. This is a must have.....go get it.

This book is great for learning more about the technical, mechanical side of sewing - the actual machine! Not really the most thrilling read, but the layout is easy to read and understand, and I would even say this would be a good book to buy and have for reference if you sew a lot.
