Book Overview

In a world that favors automation and machines, what better way to unplug than to do creative work with your own two hands? This book shows you the basic stitches of handsewing and teaches you how to combine them for different kinds of seams and for different kinds of clothing. You will gain a better understanding of hand sewing and a deeper connection to your wardrobe. Sewing a garment by hand need not be complicated, or time consuming. With a few skills, borrowed from the old world, you can wear everyday clothing made entirely by hand.
