Customer Reviews: Avg. Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Great Must-Have read for any sewer:
Great book to use if knowledge of fabric is minimal: This is a great reference book. I wish my university would use it for their textile 101 class. Everything you ever wanted to know...: This contains everything you would ever want to find out before purchasing fabric. It tells you what the fabric should be used for, if it should be washed and how before sewing, the thread, needle and stitch size that would work best. It will save you both time and money in the end. Wide range of fabrics covered: I really like this book. It covers many fabrics, including many I've been hesitant to use or nervous about when I did. I recently bought a new electronic sewing machine and this has been a real help. The recommendations about the right foot to use and when were a boon in selecting which accessories to buy. I also really like the sections in the back. There are illustrations on different seams, closures, and hems, plus information on stain removal, linings, and sources. Great!
