Reviews"A really solid foundation on sewing." -- Utne Reader "Ideal for thrifters, vintage clothes collectors, and anyone into not tossing their clothes because a button pops off or a zipper is stuck. There is something deeply pleasing and satisfy about mending and making clothes last." -- Angry Chicken "This is pretty much a great gift for anyone who's into sustainability and learning new tricks. It's all very friendly and approachable with both quick fixes and more skilled mending. It's also a cool read and fun to look at." -- Pushpin Zines

  • Good for learning or reviewing hand sewing.

    Raleigh Briggs presents basic easy-to-understand information with pictures. Each one of her books is a small personal piece of art with hand lettering and drawings.
