This is such a nice book for any youngster who thinks they want to be a fashion designer. It goes over almost all things you need to know, and it includes patterns. Personally I don’t like all the patterns, but that is because I have been sewing for years. They are perfect pattern for those just starting out. I started out using similar patterns when I was a child, so I know the style works. I really like that the authors included pictures of boys sewing as well as girls. The only place I think is lacking is on sewing machine knowledge. It gives the basics, such as which side to sew on, but not what stitch to use, or thread tension, etc, which can play into how well your sewing project goes. Overall, I think it’s a fantastic resource for kids and beginners.… (más)
