Book Reviews of Simply Sewing (Kids Can Do It)Book Review: Easy, clear project instructions, cute projects Summary: 5 Stars
Judy Sadler is great-- I also love her knitting books. I've looked through stacks of library books about sewing and knitting as a novice adult learner, and find that her books contain the clearest instructions, avoid a lot of confusing technical chatter, and jump-start you on sewing or knitting right away without assuming you know terminology and abbreviations. From this book specifically, I have made the pin cushion and the makeup bag (both turned out really cute and looked just like the illustration), and plan to make a few more items. These were my first-ever attempts at using a sewing machine, so I was impressed.
Hope she writes a longer book full of more sewing projects.
Book Review: Sewing for Kids Summary: 5 Stars
My 8 year-old granddaughter asked if I would teach her to sew. I am not gifted with natural teaching abilities, but I told her I would have a go at it this summer once school was out. I needed a book with simple but fun projects that a young girl would want to make. Making something she would have no use for or that was so difficult as to frustrate would only discourage her. The book Simply Sewing is full of easy fun projects that most kids will enjoy doing. A Beach Bag, a simple skirt are a couple of the projects in the book.
My granddaughter is excited to start sewing.
Book Review: sew easy Summary: 4 Stars
My daughter bought two copies (she's 8) and has done multiple projects from it with little to no instruction from me. They're simple, easy, quick, and very rewarding for the beginner. I'm teaching sewing lessons to 9 and 7 year olds and they're loving the pajama pants we're putting together. Highly recommended for kids.
Book Review: The Cutest Projects Summary: 5 Stars
I gave this book to my [...] Grand Daughter along with a sewing machine for her Birthday. It was a great hit! The projects in this book were great and just right for a young girl learning to sew. We both just love this book.
Book Review: Clever Book! Summary: 4 Stars
This is a great little book with big ideas! I teach sewing to kids and have used some of the projects in our classes. I think a good sewer ages 12 and up could independently make some of these on their own!
