I taught myself to sew in the last 7 years and my daughter who is 6 is learning. She really wants to make her own AG doll clothes. This book would so wonderful to have!

I learned to sew and love sewing while watching a wonderful older lady take scraps and make beautiful outifts for me. She sewed with love, and it enveloped my heart. By the time I was in high school, I was doing the same thing for special little girls. My newest joy has been helping young girls learn to sew and love it. This would be a great book to share with them as I help them know how to make their own masterpieces!

I love to sew and enjoy all the challenges that it gives me and want to pass the “the art and the love to sew idea” and enthusiasm on to my granddaughters. Thank you for making this offer possible.
