Sewing for Beginners - Everything you need to start creating today

by Cinnamon Miles

A key life skill as well as a fun hobby, there is no reason why you
shouldn’t pick up a needle and learn how to sew. Perhaps you want to
fix the odd tear in your jeans or make alterations to your garments –
maybe you’re even a budding fashion designer with a creative itch to
scratch. Either way, this book will teach you all the essentials necessary
to start stitching. We run through all the basic sewing techniques and
lingo, before introducing you to your new best friend: the sewing
machine. Explore this powerful gadget and master its seemingly endless
functions – you’ll be loading a bobbin or attaching a zipper foot before
you know it! Learn the different types of stitches and their uses, and
discover various types of pleats, tucks and darts to use in your creations.
Finally, enjoy a chapter of fun beginner-level projects that will help you
practise your brand new skills. Have fun creating!
