SUCCESSFUL SEWING<br />
by Mary G. Westfall, ©<strong>2013</strong>, 7th Edition Suggested Grade Levels 6-12<br />
Successful Sewing is a write-in text designed for use by beginning<br />
and experienced sewing students. A step-by-step, easy-to-follow<br />
format allows students to work at their own pace as they experience<br />
the fun, excitement, and creativity of sewing. The text teaches apparel<br />
construction skills and includes imaginative ideas for making sewing fun<br />
and profitable.<br />
• New to this edition is a lesson introducing students to sewing service<br />
projects—charitable projects.<br />
• The text revolutionizes how to teach clothing construction to a group<br />
of students at different skill levels.<br />
• Teachers serve as facilitators rather than disseminators of information.<br />
