<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Cherry introduces sewing to young seamsters--from simple stitches and doll making to understanding and using a sewing machine--in this series. This kit includes fabric for two stars and practice sewing papers, with which kids can hone their sewing machine skills by creating straight lines, curves, corners, and lock stitches. Full color. Consumable.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The My First Machine Sewing Book kit includes the book, fabric for two stars, and six practice papers. This fourth book in the My First Sewing Book series introduces machine sewing to children who have already mastered hand sewing. Children learn the parts of a sewing machine, then use practice papers to learn to stitch on straight and curved lines, turn corners, make big and little stitches, make lock stitches, and stitch a curved-line shape. Moving to fabric, they machine-sew and stuff a fabric star as they learn about seam allowances, tapering seams, and snipping and clipping fabric and thread. Additional fabric shapes to enlarge and trace are included on the final page. Winky Cherry's unique My First Sewing Book program teaches young children not only sewing skills, but life skills: responsibility, commitment, focus, patience, coordination, organization, and how to follow rules, all through the enjoyment of sewing. In six books, levels progress from simple hand sewing, embroidery, and doll making, to machine sewing, patchwork, and quilting. The three hand sewing books feature clever rhyming instructions for children as young as 5. The three machine sewing books are for children ages 7 and older. All six titles have simple, clearly-illustrated instructions. Each book builds on the previous books, and each book can stand alone.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Winky Cherry</b> has been teaching children to sew for more than 40 years. She is the author of the <b>My First Sewing Book</b> series of kits, and a teaching manual and two DVDs based on <b>The Winky Cherry System of Sewing</b>. She believes that hand sewing rewards the child with a feeling of accomplishment and a completed project. Sewing is also a way to learn safety, sharing, decision-making, confidence, and patience. She uses rhymes because they make sewing rules fun and easy to remember. She lives in Tesuque, Arizona.
