This book takes the mystery out of the sewing machine, holding first-time stitchers by the hand and showing the easiest ways to get the most from their machine. In the climate of “make do and mend,” sales of sewing machines have soared, but many are only accompanied by a difficult-to-understand technical manual. Here, Jane Bolsover provides a comprehensive guide for beginners. Starting with an essential overview of the sewing machine, learn how to thread it and wind bobbins, why tension is important, and which needles to choose. There's information on the basic sewing kit you will need, plus advice on which fabrics to choose and how to cut out. The chapters then build into a complete sewing course, and at the end of each chapter is a simple project to consolidate the skills you have just mastered. The projects include items for the home, including a cushion cover and a lampshade, stylish accessories, such as bags and scarves, plus great clothing basics, such as an A-line skirt and a simple shift dress. Also included at the back of the book are two full-size pull-out paper pattern sections.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Sewing Course for Teachers: Comprising Directions for Making the Various Stitches, and Instruction in Methods of Teaching The introduction of manual training as a necessary part of education has raised sewing to an art of great importance. Outside of the practical advantage of being able to use the needle, the mental training through hand and eye has been proved to have a permanent effect on the character. The training of the hand makes it dextrous in other employments. Habits of thrift, cleanliness, patience and accuracy are inculcated, economy taught and the inventive faculty developed. Attention and the power of observation are increased by giving the lesson to an entire class at one time instead of by the old method of showing each pupil separately. In order to get the best results, certain fixed rules must be followed; to meet this want, these brief notes are given for the use of teachers. The course is care fully graded to lead the mind gradually upward to more difficult needlework. An enthusiastic and progressive teacher can, through sewing, make freer and more capable beings of her pupils and help round out their characters.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Sewing Course for Schools: With Models and Directions as to Stitches, Materials and Methods The object before the teacher of needlework should be to educate her pupils to be intelligent workers with the needle and to develop faculties within them which will benefit them for life. The training should be made as interesting as possible. Children like to do the things they know how to do, and, having once learned to sew, can be taught orally, or by reading aloud to them, many useful things connected with their work, for, when the hands are occupied, the mind is particularly acute and receptive.
