3.0 out of 5 stars
Same as Photo Guide book by this publisher.,

This review is from: The New Sewing Essentials (Singer Sewing Reference Library) (Paperback)
I was not very impressed with the information contained in this book. It started out with basic skills and jumped to advanced sewing. There was very little information for the average ability seamstress. Be aware that the book, "New Sewing Essentials" and "The Complete Photo Guide to Sewing" are by the same publisher and are virtually the same. Many identical photos and information.

This review is from: The New Sewing Essentials (Singer Sewing Reference Library) (Paperback)
This is useful to demonstrate basic sewing projects and tehcniques. Very good for advanced beginning crafters. I would recommend this book to 5ht grades through 10th grade, for teachers and parents.

This review is from: The New Sewing Essentials (Singer Sewing Reference Library) (Paperback)
THIS BOOK IS FANTASTIC, AND EVEN AS AN ACCOMPLISHED SEAMSTRESS I HAVE FOUND MYSELF CONSISTENTLY REFERRING TO IT FOR WISDOM. I LEARNED A NEW WAY OF DOING ZIPPERS WHICH HAS CUT MY HALF IN TIME AND GIVEN ME A LOVE FOR ZIPPERS OVER BUTTONS!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
