This book is the ideal introduction to hand sewing for children
from the ages of eight and up. Most of the projects use felt as the

don't have to be razor sharp. Felt also has the advantage of being
cheap and widely available. The book contains a section on tools
and materials, as well as a section on techniques which include
running, back and blanket stitch. Other techniques are covered in
projects throughout the book. Projects include: noughts-and-crosses
