"I have several friends that are in the medical profession. This idea is awesome. So many times large clinics or hospitals require you to wear solid color scrubs. Here is a great way to say a little about yourself...your hobbies, vacations, pets etc. I just love the idea and will be making several."

"This summer sun dress looks so comfortable to wear. The V-front and V-back as well as the elastic fitted empire-line waist, and the gently gathered skirt gives this dress its style. Just two pattern pieces and a soft knit fabric will make this easy to wear summer frock. I have a pretty patterned knit that will be perfect for this dress"

"Love this pretty summer dress. The instructions indicate only one yard of fabric is needed to make the dress. If the adult version of the dress turns out somewhat short, easy to add some cotton eyelet or satin ribbon to the hemline to lengthen. Less elastic lines of gathers might be a way to add some length as well."

It's been many, many years since I first learned to sew. No one has ever introduced me to a beginner's sewing machine book. I'd love to have this one to learn those little tricks that make sewing so much easier. The user manual that came with my superb machine is very sketchy with only the very basic of basics--and it misses some of those!
