    I have been,n sewing for about 35 years. I learned how to hand sew in the 4-H club, so the first garment I made was actually handmade. I learned how to use a sewing machine in home ed as your husband described his experience. I am teaching my 8-year-old granddaughter to sew, so I purchased your book for her. Also to support you for all your content on TH-cam. I purchased an autograph copy. Pre-ordered and received it yesterday. As I was watching this video, I was searching for fabric to make a wool coat! That is also on my bucket list for sewing. For your second book, think about an alteration one. I would love to have all your techniques in one place. Thank you for all the good context.

    I love Professor Pincushion. Tova has such a natural talent for teaching and explaining things clearly. Very often when I watch her vids and follow along, I feel like she is literally reading my mind as she answers all the questions that pop up for me all along the way! It's almost comical! She really knows her stuff and gets straight to the point, making the focus on the craft, which is refreshing! I love her down to earth, honest, no nonsense approach and always refer to her vids first when I need to get over a sewing hurdle. This was fun to watch and nice to see the adorable relationship she has with her husband! Thank you and Happy Holidays to the Professor Pincushion Channel!
