    August 09, 2009: I recently picked up sewing as a new hobby. I had just completed a weekend tote bag class and was ready to venture on to other project ideas. I am so glad that i found this book. Amy Butler in Stitches is the perfect DIY book on how to make useful but very cute items (aprons, document duvet, pillows...). The instructions are easy to follow as well. Highly recommended.

    Great book for new sewers and those more experienced, alikeby Anonymous

    June 20, 2009: I'm a relatively new sewer (though have been knitting for 10 years) and I love the patterns in this book. They're definitely easy to understand and I feel like they're approachable as well. Looking forward to making many crafts and looking for other Amy Butler books in the future.
