Description
Get to know your machine and its accessories, learn how to sew basic seams and hems, and discover how to lay out a pattern. Begin sewing simple garments such as a T-shirt, pull-on skirt, apron, and unlined jacket, and home décor items like pillowcases, a baby blanket, a round tablecloth, and quilted placemats.
Projects are arranged progressively, from simple garments to more challenging items. Each project introduces and explores new sewing techniques in depth. Variations will inspire you to create your own designs.
Sewing 101 teaches you everything you need to know for successful machine sewing, including:
- Easy techniques for matching designs

- Clear instructions and photos to help you build your skills and confidence
Written specifically for beginners, the books in the 101 series are complete illustrated guides to the basics of a craft that present projects supported with full-color, step-by-step instructions and photos to teach essential techniques.
