Synopsis

Written by left-handed professional dressmaker Sally Cowan, this guide addresses the needs of the 15% of the population often overlooked by standard stitching manuals. The approach is sympathetic and practical, with instruction tailored specifically for left-handed sewers.

Inside, 40 varieties of stitches are covered, including straight, back, caught, blanket, buttonhole, chain, knotted, cross, couching, satin and laid filling stitches. Each technique is supported by 96 clear drawings that show progressive steps, making it a focused reference for left-handed hand-embroidery work.
