Stories from real sewists

“I’ve been sewing most of my life and I love making new things for gifts. These are going to be a big hit with my friends and family. You are truly an inspiration.”

– 
Sheila S.

"As a fairly new sewist, I probably wouldn’t have attempted this without your videos. My binding is my neatest so far! Love your instructions — so achievable!”

– 
Sharon W.

"I’ve never done any sewing before and the tutorial videos were so helpful… I can’t believe I’ve done this! When people ask me where I found the pattern, I tell them Arabesque Scissors."
