About the Author
Carol Laflin Ahles is a contributor for Taunton Press titles including Fine Machine Sewing.
Reviews
Ahles is a popular teacher of heirloom and creative sewing and a frequent contributor to Threads magazine. Since the publication of the first edition of Fine Machine Sewing (LJ 12/96), this book has become the bible of heirloom sewing techniques, with an emphasis on pintucking, fagoting, and decorative hemming. This second edition has been revised to include new techniques and information on newly available sewing machines, as well as an additional chapter on replicating vintage lace and entredeux. An essential purchase for sewing and costuming collections in public and academic libraries.
