Sew Everything Workshop


S.E.W. - Sew Everything Workshop by Diana Rupp 2007, ISBN 978-0-7611-3973-7, Library Call No. 646.2

What an enjoyable book and what a great book to recommend to beginning (and even experienced) sewists! This would be the first one I would give to a friend starting out - followed up by the traditional Vogue and Simplicity sewing books, of course. But this book is fun and will definitely whet their sewing appetite. Diana Rupp's introduction and her stories and tips interspersed throughout are an enjoyable read. While I haven't had a chance to try out the ten patterns -- It's due back at the library and someone else wants it. Always remember to give your local library a trial run for sewing and crafting books. Remember, they are one of the original renewable resources! Unless someone has it on reserve. hahaha, I'm punchy today -- they look appealing and do-able for a wide skill range. Next time I get a good coupon or need some padding for free shipping on a future Amazon order, I'm buying this book!
