Overview

Sewing machines are complicated machines, but with this book you can unravel their mysteries—and make even an old sewing machine work wonders.

With just a little know-how and the right accessories, you can get the most out of your sewing machine and give all your sewing and quilting projects a professional look!

In Sewing Machine Magic, designer and sewing instructor Steffani Lincecum shares more than thirty years of experience on how to handle a sewing machine with greater ease and confidence, and explains how to easily find and use the right presser feet and other accessories for your machine, whether you purchased it at retail or found it at a yard sale.

You’ll learn the logistics of managing thread, how to achieve the proper stitch formation for every project, and how to troubleshoot a variety of common sewing problems. Learn to use more than thirty presser feet and other accessories, from the basics to more specialized tools designed to maximize efficiency, precision, and creativity. In addition, the ten fashion and home decor projects included here show inventive ways to use some of the feet and accessories. Master your machine with a teacher who has sewn for film, TV, and theater productions and shared her expertise on PBS and Craftsy!
