Wonderful reference. The book includes wonderful photos plus descriptions of different needles and their uses; different machines; and of course, multiple techniques to solve common sewing problems.
Sections include useful tools (some of which I've never heard of, and I've been an amateur seamstress for 20 years), troubleshooting your machine with photos of skipped stitches, puckering, etc, for easy identification; hand smocking; embellishments including instructions on how to make fabric flowers; underlinings; edges; minor repairs.
This is a must-have reference book for everyone who sews.
