Learn to Sew! From plugging in the sewing machine to sewing pajamas, Buckles and Bobbins, our boys sewing book, guides the novice tailor with clear, step-by-step instructions.

Sixteen projects, complete with sewing patterns, are useful items you will be proud to use, wear, or give. Pillowcases, potholders, duffle bags, blankets, vests: each sewing project focuses on mastering specific sewing techniques, and builds upon skills learned. An extra life skills section covers how to sew on a button, and how to iron a shirt.

Special techniques beyond the basics ensure that the final creation will be as professionally constructed as it was fun to make. Guys agree, learning to sew and design your own outdoor gear is cool.
