    great book

    I have only had a chance to skim over this book, but everything in it is very informative. In just the short few minutes I had, I learned a new technique and I've been sewing for 30+ years! Great reference book!

    Sewing Machine Classroom

    If you have a tendency to blame your machine for your anxiety to sew,… as have I. Get this book and have a relationship with your machine. Appreciate what it can and can not do. Take care of it as a friend and move on to create beautiful things. Charlene Phillips filled in the gap for me and my many machines that I now can use effectively!!!

    THE book to have!

    I have bought another book and looked at some others at my public library, but they were all disappointing. This book though, it's awesome! Lots of pictures and great explanations about pretty much everything you need to know to start sewing!
