CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

love it! -
it's great. i am new to sewing, and it has more than i ever thought i needed to know about sewing. it also has patterns for beginners!

Great for kids & newbies -
I am an intermediate sewer, having learned the standard apron and napkin set in 7th grade home ec, some 30 years ago. i saw anna maria on a martha stewart segment and was hooked, even tho i rarely watch martha these days. i've been looking for a great intro book to teach my two girls (12 & 8) how to sew. maybe it's because ann maria has several children or maybe because she's got such joy and childlike qualities to her...this book is perfect for newcomers and kids alike! i actually checked it out of the library first to see if i'd like it and my girls started making the projects, so i HAD to buy it. I love it because the illustrations and directions are SEW EASY to follow that, yes, even a child can follow!

Disappointed!... -
This recent purchase was most disappointing especially since I had held out for a long time on buying this book. The projects were nothing to rave over and none stood out. The only redeeming feature was the pictures of the beautiful fabrics that were used.

Great book -
I recently bought this book to learn to make something besides napkins. I love all the projects and completed the Taxi Tote tonight. My only complaint is that this isn't really for a novice like myself. I look forward to many enjoyable hours spent making things from this book, but I think I need a little more general sewing knowledge before I tackle a few of the more complicated (to me) projects.

Love it...love it...love it -
I am a beginner so I love this book. The instructions seem well written and easy to follow. I have read the book, but have not made any of the projects yet, but can't wait to get started. The projects all seem easy enough and I love her use of colors and prints.

My friend recommended this book and I thank her for it....
