My First Doll Book KIT Hand Sewing

Winky Cherry introduces sewing to young seamsters--from simple stitches and doll making to understanding and using a sewing machine--in this series. Guides feature clever rhymes and simple instructions, which teach sewing skills, as well as responsibility, commitment, focus, patience, coordination, and orginization. Levels progress through hand sewing, embroidery, doll making, machine sewing, patchwork, and quilting. Guiding crafters through beginning doll making, this kit includes two sets of doll shapes precut from quality felt, crochet thread, and yarn for hair. Using basic sewing stitches, kids learn how to pull a needle without an adult, embroider faces, attach yarn, and make clothes.

Winky Cherry has been teaching children to sew for more than 30 years. She is the author of the My First Sewing Book Kit series. She lives in Mill Valley, California.
