When you're passionate about your hobby, it's nice to share that love with your children. But sometimes, it's hard to know how and where to start, especially if they are young. So, how can you share your sewing excitement someone you love? See and Sew may just be your answer!

The book itself is written in a way that the independent reader will have no problem with the wording. Children who aren't old enough to read (or are a beginning reader) should be able to easily understand the directions if an adult is reading it to them. In fact, Taylor was reading parts of the book to me!

See and Sew discusses all the basics of hand sewing, including commonly used stitches (even embroidery), tools, threading and knotting a needle, how to sew a button, and the importance of (and how to) press your work. It also teaches sewing safety such as using a thimble and working in a well lighted area. But no instruction book would be complete without the projects! Included in this book are over 10 simple, yet kid friendly sewing projects such as making a sock doll, elf slippers, and Taylor's favorite - the egg cozy.

See and Sew is a great way to share your passion for sewing with someone young. But don't let this book fool you - it's a useful reference for adults too, especially if you're like me and hand-stitching is not your strong point! Thanks again Kathryn for this great book!
