I want to inspire all children to love the feel of fabric, the shimmer of a button, and the hum of a sewing machine.

An Invitation to Sew is the ideal gift and guide for every child who loves fashion design and sewing

This book stitches together all things fabric, ribbons, and lace that I loved as a child with the knowledge and wisdom I acquired as an adult.

It inspires girls and boys as our young seamstress creates a dress from drawing to sewing. Woven through her journey are facts about fibers, fabrics, tools, and sewing techniques. The vibrant colors and intricate images in the book are eye-candy for all to enjoy.

It's only one in a series of planned books on cooking, jewelry making, fiber arts, photography, and more. How-to books with supporting products and services are a distinct possibility too. ~ Abby
