    And if so, do you like it? The Amazon reviews are all over the place.

    I don’t have it, but I remember looking at it years ago. It didn’t suit my tastes or seem very substantial. I suspect you could find all those basic patterns in the big 4eawily enough.

    I’ve only checked it out of the library. I wasn’t particularly impressed although I think they may have had a Lego carrier I thought was clever.
    I felt that the sizing was limited, only went to 6/7, although much better than many other books that only go to size 6. There were lots of raw edge techniques, so it depends if you like that style or not.
    Maybe see if your local library has It so you can check it out in person.

    Oh, I’ve tried the library, I always try that route first with sewing or craft books and then buy the ones I like. Otherwise, I’d have towering shelves of craft books!

    Thanks for the feedback; I think this one isn’t for me. Not a huge fan of raw edge sewing either.

    Back to my Bedtime Story PJs:-).
