About this title

Synopsis

Here, quite literally, is the true "cutting edge" of sewing today -- machines featuring computerized programs for stitches that used to require years of practice but now are available even to busy beginners. Whether you already own one of these "miracle machines" or are just thinking what you can do if you buy one, take this opportunity to discover the latest and best project ideas for embroidery machines. You get a fascinating introduction to the full range of new sewing machines on the market, along with dear explanations of the bewildering advances. Complete instructions cover the new sewing machines, scanners, and computerized "sew on their own" embroidery machines. Projects feature home decorations, garments and accessories for your wardrobe, and special gift ideas like personalized Christmas items, invitations, birth announcements, and many other holiday and personalized designs. Find your inspiration to join the computer revolution, as you master many delicate techniques that would have been impossible with even the most advanced machines just a few years ago. Published in hardcover as Creative Sewing Projects with Computerized Machines.

Review

Computerized sewing machines can do marvelous things these days, but they're no good if you don't know how to use them. Brand by brand, Hastings demystifies these wonders and their accessories and notions, then offers more than 30 snazzy step-by-step projects to take advantage of your machine's amazing capabilities. Garments, home-decor accessories, holiday items, and gift ideas all come out looking professional, and the embellishment takes relatively little effort and little time: you supply the basic design concepts (there are plenty of nice ones here), and the machine does all the work. --Amy Handy
