How to train your sewing machine

Learn how to painlessly use your sewing machine and make stylish clothes and accessories you actually want to wear. Trained on Savile Row, Rehana Begum has taught sewing for years, and knows how to introduce beginners to their sewing machines without stress or disaster. Now she presents that expertise in this book. Learn how to thread your machine, choose your stitch and start up without creating a frustrating tangle of knots. With clearly illustrated techniques and simple patterns (from a tote bag to a simple dress), you’ll quickly be able to build on your skills and turn them into finished products to be proud of – even if it’s your first time on a sewing machine.
