ONE of the greatest pleasures and most happy experiences people can have is in creating something beautiful and useful by themselves. Sewing satisfies your unfulfilled desires by giving you an opportunity to design, and to play with colors and textures for your family and your home.

A singular advantage in this book is the comprehensive coverage of all aspects of sewing.

Not only is this a book of instruction, it is a sort of sewing encyclopedia as well.

The large number of well selected and appropriate descriptive illustrations in the book are among its most valuable features.
