A Child s First Sewing Book is a reproduction of an extremely useful and charming mid-century instructional sewing book for children by Jane Chapman. It is filled with illustrations and diagrams (by Walter Chapman and Jeva Cralick) that are not only delightful, but also practical. The creators of this book realized that machines easily intimidate beginning sewers, and limited their scope to hand sewing. It includes a handful of simple projects that children eight and up can accomplish with little to no adult supervision, including a bookmark, beanbag and change purse. A Child s First Sewing Book also includes instructions and diagrams on basic hand stitches, using needles, scissors, thimbles and pins, basic pattern use and more."
