Ides’ has beautifully illustrated many ways to fix and sew garments from sewing on a button to hemming a dress without the need of high priced tailors. The time and money saved by learning her simple mending fixes can be rewarding. Instead of throwing away a garment or leaving it hang in your closet, you can spruce it up or repair it easily.
It is interesting how easy it is to begin hand mending. You do not need a sewing machine. You gather very basic tools to start. Most homes already have needles, thread, scissors, measuring tape and sew (sic) on. Any other supplies needed are very inexpensive and can be found in any sewing department of your local store.
In specific detail you are shown how to thread a needle, stitch a hem, sew on a button, fix zippers, and many other techniques which save money.
Whether you are a man, woman, teen or child, this book is valuable for you. Because basic skills in sewing remain the same and do not change, Hand Mending Made Easy will stay on your bookshelf for a long time being used as an instruction manual. ( )
