Hot Brands Verdict
Here at Hot Brands we work hard, but we also play hard, and play for us often means indulging our creative side. Having recently mastered the instructions of turning on and threading our state-of-the art sewing machine, we were desperate to try and make something! This book is absolutely perfect for anyone who wants to find out more about sewing, everything from the equipment you need to the different type of stitches you can use and full details on a range of techniques for everything from soft furnishings to clothing. Finally there is a wonderful projects section covering how to make 25 different projects, we loved the stylish drawstring bag, the beautiful cushion, and are currently in the middle of creating a Roman Blind! There is much, much, more in this delightful book and we love it! Highly Recommended!
