Catch the Sewing Bug is especially designed for younger hands working with adult ones, and is written in such a way that adults with no sewing skills can easily work their way through it. The book provides simple, do-able, fun projects. Each project builds upon skills learned in an earlier one, and by the time the child finishes the book, she not only has a fair repertoire of basic sewing skills, but also a large boxful of useful, fun things that she has made. It is amazing how much even the youngest child, with a caring adult, a good machine, and this book, can do! These projects have been created to be completed in a short amount of time to accomodate the attention span of your budding seamstress. So come along side your child and watch her experience the fun of sewing and the gleam in her eye as she proudly shows off her creations and announces to all, "I made it myself!" Turn her first experience with the sewing machine into a lifelong love..and watch as she "catches the bug."
