From Booklist:

Readers appreciate the clarity of Lee's instructions, since each step is numbered, photographs and other illustrations ease difficult tasks, and sidebars ensure the comfortableness of the sewing. Her prose only enhances her book's helpfulness, with not an ounce of fluff or hyperbole marring any of her sentences. She tackles the seemingly mundane chores of edges and corners by providing more than three dozen alternatives that transform a so-so accessory into an objet d'admiration. Derived from a class she teaches, her book empowers beginners to stitch again and again. Barbara Jacobs
