Today Rae shared Sewing for BOYS.
And now I've got one more for you! Books are in the air!

Amie and Andria are two moms who teach a sewing school for kids in Memphis, TN. The school has been such a hit with the community that they turned it into a book, called....Sewing School. BRILLIANT.


Sewing School walks kids through basic stitches, explains what should be in your sewing basket, teaches them to troubleshoot (in terms they understand), and has a wide variety of projects they can do on their own...both by hand and with a machine. And all the patterns needed are at the back of the book.








Here's all the info....

julie.lemagne@gmail.com
My son is only 4 but he LOVES anything that has to do with sewing. I have no idea what he's ready for, but I've taught him to iron and let him have an embroidery hoop with needle & e. floss and even let him "drive" the sewing machine and serger. Progress on my projects slows down when he's "helping", but it's totally worth it! I'd really like to win this book for him (I bet he'd even try to read it himself!)
