Thank you so much for these recommendations! I am trying to get off my phone and into hobbies I love such as sewing. Finding books that I can use is helpful with this, because I don't get sucked into technology and with a book I can stay engaged! This video was lovely and very useful! 💕

Very nice collection of beginner books Ms. Elizabeth! You’re so correct, once you get the “sewing bug”, gain as much knowledge as you can! Thanks for sharing!

Absolutely Myra! There's always those head scratching times when pattern directions fail you and you need a solid help to get you to the other side!

Great video. I have the Tilly love at first stitch book. However I passed up the vogue sewing book last week at a thrift store. 😞 and now I wish I wouldn’t have. 😭

Oh no! It's one worth having for sure. Another one is the Reader's Digest Complete Guide to Sewing. I didn't put it in this list because the one you want is the vintage one from 1976. It's similar but a little different.

Great recommendations! I have all but the One Yard Wonders and the one after that.
@ElizabethMadeThisSEW4 жыл бұрын
I really like the practice aspect of One Yard Wonders--that and the low barrier entry for working with a new fabrics. It's a chunk of a book and I don't think it's meant to be sewed all the way through from start to finish, but if you were nervous about a new type of fabric and wanted a simple project to build your skills with it, this is a great resource for sure!

I loved your video! Please, tell me... what is the book that you use for the basic bodice patterns?
@ElizabethMadeThisSEW3 жыл бұрын
None of these particular books deal with that. If that's something you're interested in, I would start with Patternmaking for Fashion Design by Helen Joseph Armstrong
