My First Machine Sewing Book

Children can use this well-conceived manual to learn how any sewing machine works. Progressive exercises help the beginner master one key skill at a time — each is explored thoroughly before moving on.

First, children learn the names and functions of the controls. Next, they master the controls by using the machine to pierce stitch lines on paper practice sheets. Learning to work with thread and fabric comes next, followed by stitching and finishing stuffed fabric pillows. Paperback, 40 pages. Ages 7 to 12. Kit contents listed below.
