Everything your mother would tell you about sewing if your mother could sew
Experienced sewing instructor and blogger Barbara Emodi shares her sewing wisdom to help readers get started, get started back up, or hone their existing garment-sewing skills.

Take advantage of her thoughts, tips, and tricks on the benefits of sewing, the importance of fit, basic techniques, available tools, patterns, and materials, and so much more. - Droll, well-informed, readable, interesting, and useful-- the how-to book of sewing wisdom you always wanted- Get the inside scoop on sizing and alternation, patternless sewing, what to sew and what to buy and many other topics
- Tips and ideas on choosing and using the best fabric, gear, and sewing machines
