Mom’s and Grandma’s…Must Have Book!,
I was lucky enough to get a copy of this book last week! I Love it!
The first thing that caught my attention was the great photography. The outfits and styling are amazing! Then, I started reading the book…It is FULL of useful sewing information for the beginning and more advanced sewist. There are step by step photos detailing the how-to’s of the more technical aspects of sewing the clothing items. The full size patterns, sizes 2-6, are a bonus! I recommend this book for the novice as well as the advanced seamstress. I can’t wait to start sewing for all of the little girls in my life.

|Excellent Book!!! Loved it!!!!,
I really like this book because it takes the basic core patterns and provides details on how to create variations from the basic core design.
The projects and directions include the Basic Bodice (Barely Basic Top/Dress, Knotty Apron variation, Sunshine Halter, Side-Tiered smock, Perfect Party Dress, Pocket Pinafore, Ruffled Peek-a-Boo Jumper), Peasant Top/Dress (Classic, Ruffled Empire Dress/Top, Tiered Twirly dress, fluttered-Sleeved top, ruffled neck top), Pants (Pants/Capris, Ruffled pants, Racing stripe pants, Lace-Edged Gauchos, Tiered Pants) and Skirts (No-Hem, Treasure, on-the-border, apron skirt, double layer twirl skirt, twirly girly skirt).
I would definitely recommend this book to both the novice and the experience sewer. If you are starting to get into sewing boutique type clothing, I would recommend starting with this book instead of buying all the separate patterns that are out there. I wish that I was able to purchase this book before sewing girl clothes because it would have definately saved me money so that I could buy more fabric for my stash.
You definitely get A LOT from this book and a bang for your buck!!! Happy Sewing!!!

|A Must-Have book for anyone who sews for little girls!,
This is a special book. From the four included, full-sized patterns and the instructions in this book, you can custom create an entire wardrobe of darling little girls clothing. The patterns all include sizes 2-6 and can be customized to fit nearly every little girl shape. The writer gives very detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to gather, shirr, construct, hem, and every other technique to sew these designs. She has filled the book with gorgeous pictures that show exactly how she did everything so you feel like she is right there with you. She shows time-saving techniques and finishing steps to really help your things look professional. She gives lots of definitions of sewing terms and talks about the right tools for the job. She explains how to choose the fabrics to get the look you want.
You really can sew nearly everything your little girl could possibly dream up using this book. I love this book!
