Sophisticated first-time sewing instruction with a year's worth of attractive projects. What makes this book truly unique is that while it's geared toward sophisticated beginners, it is also a teaching tool for experienced sewers and instructors, or advanced sewists who simply want a classic set of inspiring, go-to projects for gifts, accessories, and home decor. Written with clear instructions by a former teacher, the book is designed to cover a year's worth of lessons with a new project every month, including: pillowcases, drawstring bags, aprons, wristlets, zippered pouches, tech sleeves, simple quilts, and more.
