I was searching amazon for sewing supplies and came across this kit along with the SFSE book. This is so great that this kit is offered. It has everything I need to sew projects for years to come. The Gingher scissors cut through fabric like butter. If your starting to learn to sew and need notions and supplies, this is by far the easiest way to go. And you don't pay shipping on a bunch of individual items.

The Sweater Chop Shop: Sewing One-of-a-kind Creations from Recycled Sweaters Review

The Sweater Chop Shop: Sewing One-of-a-kind Creations from Recycled Sweaters
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I disagree with all of the other reviewers. This is a great coffee table book, or a great picture book to look at. I say this because there were only 2 projects that I could see myself wearing in this entire book, and they both look very similar. The 2 projects that I am talking about is the dress on the cover and a patchwork sweater/hoodie that is in the book. All of the other projects in the book are very boring and that I would never use or see the need to make. For example, about half of the book, the author shows you how to make dinky raggedy stuff animals (and there are a few that she shows you how to make...but these are just page fillers to me). And then about 1/3 of the book (in the beginning pages) she shows you how to make the patchwork pillows (like the one on the cover) with a few variation design...boring! I wanted her to have more clothing ideas! And then the other stuff in the book are just projects to make scarves (like the one on the cover on the side). There are NO patterns in the book (just sketch diagrams of how you should cut the sweaters into pieces). I bought this book mainly for the dress design on the cover; but since there are no patterns in the book, it takes a little bit of time to figure out. I am an advance seamstress (been sewing for 16 years). I prefer the old fashion way to making clothes (with patterns). A fun book to look at; but not the best book out there. If you like cutting stuff up like t-shirts and sweaters, a better book would be, "99 ways to rip, cut, and sew a t-shirt/denim/scarf." I probably will end up returning this book. Not worth the money that I paid for it for only 1 or 2 useable projects. I hope this helps.

Sew What Skirts: 16 Simple Styles You Can Make with Fabulous Fabrics Review

Sew What Skirts: 16 Simple Styles You Can Make with Fabulous Fabrics
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I sew almost every day. I never use patterns. I hate them. I mean, what's the point of putting all that time into making a garment if it's going to look like something you bought at the store?
That's why I design all my clothing and handbags, and this book is now one of my favorites. It doesn't come with built in patterns, but directions for how to measure yourself and make patterns or - better yet -mark the skirt dimensions right on the fabric. What's more, the designs are unique and versatile, and the author encourages personal creativity.
The day after I bought it I sewed the Country Charm skirt using some quilters cotton and another cotton fabric I'd hand-dyed a few days before. The directions were simple, accurate and within a couple of hours I was done. Thanks to the wonderful instructions, my fabric choices and an applique I ended up with unique, wearable work of art and a new style of skirt to sew for myself or others.
It's not often I'm impressed with a sewing book. This one gets my highest recommendation.

Couture Sewing Techniques Review

Couture Sewing Techniques
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is truly a wonderful book for those ready to step beyond "speed sewing" and rotary cutting to creating beautiful garments with exquisit finishing. I've been sewing for 40 years and never knew how different couture sewing techniques are from those the rest of us commonly use. As precisely used in this text the word "haute couture" only applies to those 20 or so designer houses in France who meet certain strict standards regulated by the government. Fascinating!
This is a book to read and study, lots of carefully detailed text and good photographs of haute couture designs and finishing techniques. Did you know there are at least five different hand basting stitches and even more permanent hand sewing stitches for garment construction? Did you know couture houses don't use paper patterns? That their seam allowances are usually at least one inch wide? That most of their basting is done from the RIGHT side of the garment? That most seam edges are finished by hand -- even into the curve clips? That most garments are constructed entirely by hand? That steaming, shrinking and molding garment sections by pressing are as important to the shaping process as the sewing? And I'm not just talking about pressing seams open here. Wow! And I thought I knew how to sew.
While other books may use "couture" in their titles this book means it. While I've said this isn't for the fainthearted anyone who sews clothing will find some new and accessible technique here. Grab it, keep it near your sewing machine and if you only add one new technique with each project your skill, pride and satisfaction in your work will grow immensely.

Average Reviews:

This is my first serger. I'm thrilled with the instructional video it came with, the easy to use manual, and the quality of this machine. Nancy recommends practicing threading daily until you're comfortable. It didn't take long! Adjusting tensions is also clearly explained. It has a number of features I couldn't get without spending much more money and comes with lots of accessories. I easily found the needles online too. I can hardly wait to try out all the stitches this machine is capable of. I'm an experienced seamstress but a novice about serging. I feel confident I'll be able to use the EZ Lock without difficulty. I'm very happy with the speed and simplicity sewing is now. I'll always have my sewing machine - but boy am I glad I finally bought a serger!

Singer Ruffler #086742-P Review

Singer Ruffler #086742-P
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a really nifty idea, and it works really well for making pleats, but I can not get it to gather. Everytime I put it on the setting for Gather it makes a big knot in one spot, and that's it. The instructions are very small, and not clear in my opinion. There is really no where that I have found for instructions online either. So unless you already know how to use this, or have someone who can show you I think you may end up very frustrated (like me).

Singer DF151 Adjustable Dress Form, Red, Medium Review

Singer DF151 Adjustable Dress Form, Red, Medium
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have used my dress form for 4 pieces of clothing now. It works really well. It really takes the guess work out of sewing if you aren't into using patterns all the time (it works really well for pattern use too)!
My only complaint is that although the size is adjustable, the shape is not. Not all women are hourglasses or curvy in all the same areas and I think that this would better accommodate all shapes if the actual waistline was adjustable.
Overall, I am really glad I bought this, as I am an avid clothing maker.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Singer DF151 Adjustable Dress Form, Red, Medium

An ideal sewing companion, this fully adjustable dress form allows for pattern adjustments before cutting, better fittings and alterations, and an opportunity to creatively work with fabrics and see how they will drape and hang on the body. Twelve dials make it easy to change the dimensions of the body, including settings at the neck for smooth collars and necklines. The height also adjusts, and a hem gauge comes included to mark the hemline for skirts and dresses. In addition, the unit's fabric cover makes it possible to pin items onto the form. Its size range measures 40 to 46 inches at the bust, 30 to 37 inches at the waist, and 40 to 47 inches at the hip. The form requires basic assembly, but no tools are required. An instruction book comes included. Overall, the dress form measures 14 by 9-1/4 by 60 inches and fits sizes 16 to 22-1/2.

Brother 1034D 3/4 Lay-In Thread Serger Review

Brother 1034D 3/4 Lay-In Thread Serger
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I think if you're looking at this machine, you're either a) new to serging or b) impressed by the price and interested in the quality. I'm completely new to sergers, but I did my homework before buying this one, and for the price and the performance, this serger has a perfect balance.
I was also concerned about being able to figure out how to use it on my own (so many people talk about taking a class) but within a day I felt like I knew it inside and out. It's setup is uncomplicated and I was able to get right to work. There's something to be said about passing over the machine that can "do it all" and buying one that just does what you need.
1) The "how-to" videos are wonderful for the visual learner. You can pick up the same knowledge from the thorough instruction book(s) included, but the videos reinforce the book. Watching the video on "threading" once, and following the line drawings on the machine itself, I was able to thread the machine in 5 minutes. (It's really not that hard - it's all color coded and the steps are numbered, but the videos help)
2) Included are two additional feet, one for a blind hem/flatlock and another for gathering ruffles as you sew. Together, they themselves are an $60 value. The feet are "snap-on" (when I read about that online I instantly thought of breakable plastic, but the feet are primarily metal with some plastic pieces on the blind hem foot) - the "snap-on" construction is very easy to use and solid (i.e. nothing is going to snap OFF over time)
3) It's very easy to set the tension and the manual has a very clear chart on troubleshooting uneven stitches (with 4 threads, there are multiple things that can be off with the tension).
4) The company description says that it does 22 stitch functions, which I think is a little misleading (it does the basic stuff and they show different applications for the basics).
THIS IS WHAT IT DOES:
1. 3/4-thread overlock (uses 4 threads; best for use with knits or upholstery fabric)
2. 3-thread overlock (general use) in two widths - 3mm (using only the right needle) and 5mm (using only the left)
3. Rolled hem (great for edges of napkins, pajama bottoms, frilly skirts, etc)
4. Flatlock stitch (decorative or flat seams)
5. Blind hem
THIS IS WHAT IT DOESN'T DO:
1. Coverlock stitch (stretchy stitch with two straight lines on the front of the fabric). If you're sewing for yourself (i.e. not selling what you make), you can fake this stitch on your regular zigzag sewing machine with a twin needle. It's not quite the same, but close enough for me.
2. Chain stitch (a semi-straight stitch, similar to a regular sewing machine but easier to rip out (i.e. good for basting) and a good reinforcement for upholstery)
Other sergers I looked at that did the coverlock stitch in addition to overlock, etc. had complicated and time consuming adjustments to be made to switch to the coverlock. If you're going to use it a lot, consider getting a separate machine that does it (the Brother model is 2340CV).
The one feature the 1034D is missing for me is the ability to do a 3-thread overlock and a chain stitch at the same time - good for upholstery but something available only on a 5 thread machine.
5) Nice little things:
1. You have the option of using regular thread spools (cheaper and smaller if you don't need 1000 yards x 4 of whatever color you're buying)
2. You use regular needles - so you can use them in both your regular sewing machine and your serger
3. It's really easy to control speed with the foot pedal - very responsive
4. Disabling the knife (that trims your fabric as you sew) is done with just the flick of a switch
5. Differential feed allows you to sew any thickness of fabric, line up stripes evenly, etc.

The Brother 1034D Serger features a 3/4 lay-in thread system with lower looper threader. Stitch options include 4 thread overlock, 3 thread overlock, narrow hem, rolled hem, and ribbon lock stitches.

The 1034D also offers a F.A.S.T. lower looper threading system for easy thread changes. The differential feed improves sewing results on stretch or thin fabrics to give you a perfect finish. Snap-on presser feet allow quick and easy changes to transition to each desired stitch. The 1034D also includes an instructional video tape to make serging fast easy and fun.

Ruffler Foot Review

Ruffler Foot
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Put on the correct machine, it worked very well. In fact I have sewn about 7 "market skirts" - dirctions for doing so for a little girl was on the internet as a free-bie , and another site told you how to make it fit an adult. Both little and big turned out well.
The ruffler saves a lot of time, and the gathering is uniform. When working with slick polyester, I had to put interfacing on the edges I was ruffling, but, by golly, I had to do so with straight sewing also.
Bottom line: if you need one, call the dealer and make sure it will fit your machine. I bought two through Amazon. One, the generic, cost $15 and postage paid; the other was $32.95 to fit a Janome. It was also postage paid. The generic fit both Brother and Janome, and the Janome fit only the Janome.

Ruffles are easy to make with the ruffler. Use them as a fashion accent on blouses and dresses, as as border for sheer curtains, or as a flounce for bedspreads, skirts, etc. You can make pleated or gathered ruffles, and you can even make and apply them at the same time!

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am currently a junior in my years as a fashion design student, and I have to say that this is one of the best investments that I have purchased for my career for awhile. If you are in to children's wear or cute dresses that have a lot of ruffling, than you cannot believe what a life saver this transformer-esque looking foot is! If you've ruffled by hand, gathering string by string than you know the agony and patience it takes to get the final product to look just right. Since ruffles are part of my design aesthetic, I was doing 3 to 4 yard ruffles and they were taking me AT LEAST 4 hours each by hand. Now... 5 minutes tops with the ruffler!!!!! I couldn't believe how professional and beautiful and fast this little guy works---like a dream.
Once you get the hang of all the settings for how wide a ruffle and how many ruffles per stitch, this is going to be your new favorite toy! I honestly still want to ruffle every piece of fabric I own!

This is The Ultimate Ruffler. Rufflers have been around for a very long time and have changed very little over the years; they have however remained very popular. Although at first sight a ruffler may appear bulky and complicated its innovative design actually makes it very easy to use. This design allows fabric to be ruffled or pleated to the desired fullness quickly and easily and also has the capability to vary the sizes of ruffles. Fits ALL Janome sewing machines!

My Double Deluxe Dress Form - Medium Review

My Double Deluxe Dress Form - Medium
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this dressform on sale for $129.99. It is an excellent value for that price, however, I feel as though the stand and the adjustment controls should both be sturdier to completely justify the full retail price which is why I gave it four rather than five stars. I'm using a base from a discarded office chair for my dressform which works perfectly to solve the light weight base issue. The flimsy adjustment controls would not be any sort of problem for a home user but I would have some concern about how they would hold up for someone who sews for others and would need to make frequent adjustments.
I did find the bust on the dressform to be two inches too low but I was easily able to correct this by putting one of my bras on the form and stuffing it with batting. This solution could be a bit problematic for someone who wears an A or B sized cup. It is my understanding that the Dritz Twinfit has a higher bustline if that is an issue.
By using the dressform's adjustment controls and using some quilt batting I was able to get a remarkably accurate double of my body in a surprisingly short amount of time. I can't overstate how much faster and easier the dressform has made fitting. My only regret is that I didn't buy one years ago.
Debbie Cook has written a comprehensive review of this dressform on Pattern Review which includes valuable how to-information. Don't miss the link in the review to many more excellent tips by Kathryn for getting a close body double. To see the review Google Pattern Review.

Brother 40-Stitch Computerized Sewing Machine CE4000
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I teach sewing lessons in Spring Texas (www.GetSewing.com). I was tired of students bring "problem" machines. I bought this machine for because two students brought ones like it and I was impressed with the quality for the price range. A good thing is, you can sew very slowly. The machine goes when you press on the foot pedal, it doesn't growl and hesitate. You can also sew fast too. The only thing I don't like on this model is that every time you stop, it stops with the needle down in the fabric and you must turn the hand wheel to move it up. It would be much more useful if the needle stopped in the position.
