"A charming introduction to the thrill of creating something with fabric and thread... Great for aspiring sewists of all ages!" (Gretchen Hirsch, author of Gertie's New Book for Better Sewing)
Sewing is a skill that's both fun and functional, and there's no better way to get started than with jolly Miss Patch! She learns how to thread a needle, cut patterns, and sew a fine seam by hand. With the help of Miss Patch, and the book's many diagrams and amusing drawings, beginning sewists can learn to make a pillow, a bag, a patchwork quilt, an apron, and even simple clothes. Originally published in 1969, this is a timeless introduction to the pleasures of sewing.
"Overall, this book was nicely put together and included an introduction to sewing which was perfect for young girls and boys... It was creative and fun to look through." - Sweetly Made (Just for You)
