Debbie Shore’s Sewing Journal is a hive of information for all sewers of all abilities. Concise and extremely informative complete with lovely poems, photos and plenty of space for your own ideas and information. A great size to pop in your bag with elastic to keep all your additional notes and swatches intact. Easy to take with you once all your information has been filled out so no need to panic in those shops or fabric shows when you need sizes and colours to hand. Filled with all manner of information from sewing basics, colours, laundry tips and reference guide to name just a few. -- Helen Finch * Half Yard Sewing Club Member * I love the idea of Debbie Shore’s Sewing Journal. As sewists we all have fabric and patten stashes, so to keep a record is not only practical but also a great aide memoire. I love the fact that Debbie has included some useful information such as how to take body measurements (and of course a place to record them), colour choices, fabrics, tools you need and more. I can see this becoming a well-thumbed, much-loved record of all my dressmaking and craft projects, with slips of paper and sketches added, making a delicious historical journal to muse over in future years. I love it! Now I need to get some more copies for my sisters, nieces and sewing friends! -- Wendy Gardiner * Author, TV Presenter, Sewing Teacher *
