Sewing is an indispensable skill if you want to become more resourceful, enabling you to fix a button, mend a split seam, or even make your own clothes.
This book starts with the basics, such as choosing your equipment and fabrics, before proceeding to guide you through a range of sewing projects, each of them accompanied by step-by-step illustrations and straightforward instructions. Budding stitchers will find themselves turning to these pages time and time again to help them master the essentials of this rewarding craft.
The Anyone Can series has been created with the absolute beginner in mind as well as those who would welcome a refresher in the most popular needlecrafts.
