"I have spent hours watching online videos trying to figure out how to repair my clothes, only to end up with tangled thread and a lot of frustration. This book is an absolute lifesaver! Stitch by Stitch breaks everything down so perfectly without overwhelming you with too much information. The fact that it focuses specifically on the 12 essential hand sewing stitches means I could master the basics before moving on. Highly recommend this to anyone starting out."

"If you've ever tried to follow a sewing tutorial only to realize the instructor is using their opposite hand, you know the struggle. Finally, a guide that explicitly specifies it is a 'Right-Handed Version'! As a righty, trying to reverse-engineer ambiguous diagrams was driving me crazy. Michelle Chung made the step-by-step process so incredibly easy to follow, making this the most accessible crafting book I own."

"Short, sweet, and to the point. The spiral binding is a brilliant touch because it lays completely flat on my table while my hands are busy with the needle and thread."

"This book finally helped me successfully mend my own clothes! The clear layout showing the best applications for the Running Stitch and Backstitch told me exactly which one to use for my ripped seams. Seeing diagrams of how the finished stitch should look on both the front and back made it so easy to check my work and get it right on the first try."

"I bought the book for my teenage daughter who wants to get into upcycling her thrifted clothes. The bright neon green cover and wavy graphics caught her eye immediately—it doesn't look like a dusty old textbook. The step-by-step instructions for the 12 essential stitches gave her the confidence to start mending right away, and she’s already customized three jackets."

"Great reference guide. I already knew a few basic stitches, but having all twelve essentials in one handy spiral-bound book is fantastic. Highly recommend for both beginners and intermediate sewers."

"I’ve bought massive sewing encyclopedias before, but they are incredibly heavy and frankly, too bulky to keep next to my everyday sewing kit. This little right-handed guide cuts out all the unnecessary fluff and delivers exactly what I actually need for 99% of my hand-sewing and mending projects. It’s an essential tool in my kit now."

"The layout is incredibly clean and visually appealing. I appreciate that Stitch by Stitch doesn't overcomplicate things with huge blocks of text. It delivers exactly what it says on the cover: a step-by-step guide to essential hand sewing stitches. It takes the intimidation factor completely out of needlework."

"I teach a beginner's home economics class, and I am making this required reading for all my right-handed students. The steps are exceptionally clear, and focusing on just 12 stitches keeps the students from getting frustrated or overwhelmed by too many techniques at once. The spiral binding also means the pages don't tear when they leave the book open on their desks."

"It is shockingly hard to find specialized, physical guides like this anymore. Being spiral-bound makes it infinitely more practical to use while holding fabric and a needle simultaneously, as you never have to use a paperweight to keep it open. A brilliant, straightforward resource that I find myself reaching for weekly."

"I've always been intimidated by sewing, but this book completely changed that. When the seam on my favorite shirt ripped, the clear table for the Backstitch showed me exactly why it was the best choice for a strong, durable repair. The visual guide showing both the front and back of the finished work helped me execute the stitch perfectly without second-guessing myself, and now I feel confident fixing all my clothes."
