This book covers the basics of sewing by hand or machine, along with five other time-honored crafts techniques, and step-by-step instructions for more than 150 projects. The book features two main parts to help readers brush up on the basics and take their skills to a new level. First, the Techniques section guides readers through sewing, appliqué, embroidery, quilting, dyeing, and printing. Following that, the Projects A to Z section features more than 150 clever ideas (including many no-sew projects).
Systems requirements for CD-ROM: a computer with CD-ROM drive. Patterns and templates are in .pdf format, so a .pdf reader will be needed.
