A thorough understanding of sewing together with skill in performance create a well-made product whether it be a dress, coat, suit or one of the many fabric furnishings for the home. Skillful, high quality sewing is within the scope of every woman. Once a few simple, basic principles are learned, it is only a matter of practice until the skill is developed that makes sewing a pleasure. Good sewing habits are reflected in everything that one makes and are easily developed when attention is deliberately directed toward them.
