Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Very dated
Review: I've received this book with my sewing machine but I couldn't use it then (I didn't know how to sew) since, I've learnt a few things so for those projects I don't need this book. ..but I still can't use it because I still don't understand the projects. It is purly explaind with a few drawings and that's it. Probably those who are already experts and don't need to learn anything could use it, because details are not explaind here properly - how to sew a french seam, or turning under a double hem, etc. Otherwise the projects are very very outdated (it was written in 1983!) however, I found a slipcover, a curtain and 1-2 things which are basicaly timeless so you can use it today too. Also there are 2-3 projects there for kids (a cat sleeping bag, a play-shop from fabric)these are cute!
If you are still interested, then here are the main things you can find in this book: curtains, blinds, cushions, bedlinen, kitchen companions, pinboard, tablecloth, mat, lampshades, upholstery and loose covers, canvas hammock, etc.
