In the beginning of 2013 everyone in our home made plans to do many things this year. One of the top things in our New Year's resolution list was to learn a new skill.
DK books are helping us to start something new. They have a wonderful collection of books for us to learn new skills such as
The step-by-step books are encouraging as it shows how to do things clearly. The instructions and the type of language they use make it is easy to understand for beginners who are trying to learn the skills. Even those who have expert knowledge about a certain skill, will like having these DK books to refer to after all we can't remember all the details :)
Here are more detailed reviews of DK books that I have done in the past such as the needlecraft and art book. I refer to these books quite often to follow patterns and remember things when I am doing crafts.
This book Get Started: Sewing and Learn Something New is a fabulous book to learn how to sew by hand and machine. It is separated into 3 parts; start simple, build on it and take it further. I like the structure of this book as it helps us learn or improve our sewing skills. The step-by-step pictures of the 30 projects and details about materials and tools in the book are useful.
I am planning to do the projects from this book, and looking forward to share them with all of you :)
