My First Sewing Machine Book: 35 Fun and Easy Projects for Children Aged 7 Years

<b>Learn how to use a sewing machine while making fantastic projects!</b> <p/>With 35 projects that you'll love to make and a helpful techniques section, this book will teach you all about sewing machines. Start out with Clothes and Accessories, where you can make a felt collar and cozy scarf, as well as a pretty skirt. Then try one of the Bags and Cases, such as a cute bobble-trim coin purse, an MP3 player case, and even a sleepover bag. Transform your room with Things for Your Room--the wall tidy looks great and gives you somewhere to store all your bits and pieces, and you can brighten up your bedding with a patchwork quilt. Finally, why not have a go at the Toys and Games? Make a rag doll, and then clothes for it, too, to get a feel for dressmaking, or create a fabric games board for playing checkers and chess. Every project has step-by-step artworks to guide you, plus a skill level so you can start with easy items and move on to more challenging things as you get better at using your machine.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Emma Hardy<br><b>Publisher:</b> Cico<br><b>Published:</b> 02/13/2014<br><b>Pages:</b> 128<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 1.15lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 10.70h x 8.00w x 0.50d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9781782491019<br><b>Audience:</b> Ages 9-12<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br>Emma Hardy is a stylist and designer who has worked on various lifestyle and interiors magazines, including Country Homes and Interiors and Marie Claire.
