Guide Review - Sewing Machine Fun for Kids

This book is so fun! Work through it from front to back to learn more about sewing and to try your hand at different techniques and projects. It includes many games, such as word searches, dot-to-dots, and mazes. As an adult, I found these projects interesting and simple, and I wanted to try them because they looked so fun! I am sure the kids will feel the same way. Some of the projects in this book include a button-up dog or cat, possibilities pocket, bok covers, lunch/gift bags, a treasure pouch, and a hamburger complete with a jar of sewn pickles!
