i think i would prefer the full version of this book better. i know absolutely nothing about sewing, so the quick tips didn't help me as much as they would help the average beginner sewer.

the size is very small, which is ideal for what it's intended use is, but not helpful to me, as i need at least 3 or 4 pictures describing what i'm looking at. :)

It's okay, techies really really basic stuff though. I thought it might be helpful given i do t know how to sew complicated things at all. Just basic whip stitch and ladder stitch. I learned a few new stitches but nothing huge.

A very nice pocket guide to sewing technique. I may want to purchase to have a small reference to have, having borrowed it from our library.
