review 1: I bought this book with a significant discount knowing I wouldn't need many of the patterns. I recently made the Green Thumb Apron and found it to be a surprisingly pleasant experience! I don't mind not having a paper pattern, all of the pieces were rectangles with easily measured modifications. The instructions were clear EXCEPT when describing laying pieces on top of each other, I had to double-check to make sure I didn't end up sewing anything on facing backwards. Otherwise, the pattern was simple, the sewing was easy, and the results are quite nice!
review 2: I consider myself a novice sewer, and I would buy this book.* Most patterns use less than 3 yards of fabric, so it's great for learning new techniques without the fear of totally screwing up.* Almo
... morest all of the patterns are sewn in a straight line* Patterns in each chapter start easy and introduce more challenging skills* The designer suggests different ways to modify each pattern and other suggested uses* Measurements are given for each pattern, so no need to print off from a CD ROM like most booksI'll be using the patterns in this book to increase my confidence in sewing. less
