Learn to Sew with Janet Corzatt — Level FOUR A Beginners Sewing Method for Palmer/Pletsch

Janet’s series of four levels is geared toward the beginner, covering all the basics to help people start sewing on their own and teach them the vocabulary of sewing. Step-by-step pattern instructions go through the construction of projects. This is the fourth level of a four-level program. In LEVEL ONE users sewed samples for a notebook, plus a child-sized or adult-sized apron. In LEVEL TWO they made more samples for their notebook and a kimono-style robe of any length with a band and pockets. In LEVEL THREE, they made more samples for their notebook plus two-piece pajamas. In LEVEL FOUR, learn how to sew zippers, elastic, buttonholes, and much more. These are the skills you will use over and over. NOTE: You may sew these samples before Level Three since some are used in the pajamas. This four-level program makes it easier than ever for people to learn fashion sewing.
