All the projects involve adults and children working together and are also suitable for people who have absolutely no sewing experience. These projects can easily be made in a single afternoon and because they are wholly hand-sewn no sewing machine is required. These projects allow parents and children to learn the techniques of hand-sewing together but they also provide them with an opportunity to nurture their creativity.
Sew Together Grow Together is divided into four chapters. In order to assist first-time sewers the projects within each chapter have been ordered so that the easiest projects come first. In addition, the projects contained in the final chapter of the book are generally more complex and challenging than the earlier projects.
