Sewing 101, Revised and Updated: Master Basic Skills and Techniques Easily through Step-by-Step Instruction

Great book, well written, and easy to follow for a novice sewing enthusiast to someone with some experience.

I bought this as a Christmas Gift for my daughter in law, It came with the DVD and she is new to sewing. Since is was a gift I could not watch the DVD but the book had a lot of next tips on sewing and it was laid out nicely with lots of photos.

I've been sewing for a long time, self taught and needed something to teach me the basics and fill in what I had not figured out myself. I have a friend that is a sewing teacher and she recommended this book to me. She loaned me her copy and I was thrilled. It is simple to read, and filled with LOTS of excellent information. Her copy had a CD in it and this copy gives you a web site which shows you the same information as is on the CD. I STRONGLY recommend this book to anyone that sews but especially to those beginners.

I ordered the used book and it was in the exact condition as advertised and arrived earlier than promised. Thank you!

I know more about sewing and was hoping this book would have covered more details I was particularly looking for. I was wanting a refresher on some techniques. Covers the basics. I wished in selling the product they would have shown some of the features inside the book as examples to give more of an idea of what's in it of the examples. It's was also printed in China and not USA. It also talks about videos online. So far, I have not seen a website or information mentioned within the book about the videos. I will have to read more of the book to find this information. Nicely illustrated book.

My nine-year-old great-grand daughter has an electric sewing machine. I gave this book to her. In about a week, I will see her. She can thentell me how she is doing. Fortunately, she approaches equipment of this type with caution. She also has a dad who is willing to assist when needed. I will be eager to hear what she thinks of the Sewing 101 Book. The title really caused me to purchase it. When it arrived, I knew it wasa good choice.

This book provides exactly what I need as I teach my granddaughter how to sew. The clearly written directions help me explain things to her as well as provide her with the information when I'm not around.

This book is amazing, I know how to sew, I took home economics in high school a very long time ago and I have sewn for years, but sometimes when you haven't done a particular project in a while it is a good thing to have a refresher and this book very helpful. Also, my daughter wants me to teach her and I got a copy of this for her too... it will be fun!

Great Resource for a beginner like me

Demasiado elemental. Patrones con técnicas muy limitadas. No vale lo que cuesta. Hay libros mejores para empezar a coser.

Great on Kindle but still prefer to have on old format paper to turn easier reference but that's just my preference.

I love this book. Its exactly what I was looking for.

An average sewing book. I was expecting something more from this book. Although it does give you some very good guidance in certain things, I do think it is not showing enough variations of techniques. As I already do quite a bit of sewing, I do not think that it is that great and some things it makes sound far more complicated what they really need to be. Not for me, but good for someone who wants to follow a "recipe"
