If you are new to sewing or need a refresher on a certain technique such as how to sew on oilcloth, this will be a helpful book for your library.
With almost 100 pages of information, you will find such subjects as darts, collars, set-in sleeves, zippers, piping and serging just to name a few. It is much more than a book for quilting; it will be a complete reference to any kind of sewing you would do.
There are no specific projects or patterns, just lots of information on different sewing subjects and how to do them. If you have been sewing for any length of time, most of the information will be known to you. But this would be a wonderful book to give to someone who is learning to sew.
