Product Information

Sewing is the perfect hobby - it is relaxing, creative and extremely useful! But sewing machines can seem complicated. This book has everything you need to know to choose, use and look after your sewing machine with confidence. Buying a sewing machine is an investment, and it can be hard to know what you are looking for. the first chapters will help you choose a machine, explaining which features to look out for. Once you've got your machine home, it can seem a little bit daunting. But with this book by your side you will soon get to grips with everything. With step-bystep instructions on setting up your machine, there is a quick run through of the basic functions common to most machines: winding a bobbin, threading up and adjusting tension and stitch size. Once you've practised sewing in a straight line, move on to the fundamentals of machine stitching - controlling the pace, guiding the fabric and turning a corner. With plenty of information on basic dressmaking techniques, you will soon be tackling seams and hems, zips and buttonholes, gathers and pleats, binding and trimming. And if you feel like getting creative, try out some decorative techniques with machine embroidery, applique, patchwork and quilting. And if you get stuck, there is an invaluable trouble-shooting section, along with a jargon-busting glossary. So whether you want to use your sewing machine to carry out simple repairs, customize and alter your vintage finds, create a whole new wardrobe from scratch, or make a stylish curtains and cushions for your home, be sure to have this manual by your side at all times!
