The Sewing Book is another must have book for me and I do like this book.
The Sewing Book
It is a must have for any sewing library - beginner, intermediate and advanced.
Perfect for a beginner, a comprehensive guide, step by step instructions for every technique possible. It also has 18 projects to do.

Disclosure: I
buy sewing books from on-line shops with my own money, I am not being
paid for writing this review. All my reviews are honest and on things that I genuinely love and would recommend to my readers.
