Sewing 101

You want to start sewing, but the basics can feel like a maze: machines seem mysterious, thread and tension look technical, and even simple seams can turn uneven. If you're brand new - or you've tried once and got stuck - this book meets you where you are and builds confidence step by step. In Sewing 101, you'll learn the fundamentals that make every project easier, from choosing your first machine to fixing common issues.
Each chapter adds one practical skill - threading, hand stitches, fabric and seam choices, accurate cutting, straight stitches and pressing, hemming, and troubleshooting - so you can move from "I hope this works" to "I know what to do."
