Rating:  Summary: WHAT A FIND! Review: What a FIND! I had no idea the internet had so much to offer as far as free stuff for folks like me who like to sew; patterns (printable and by mail order) fabric samples etc! I would recommend anyone who sews to definitely get this book its is definitely worth the price!
