Customer Reviews

This book is informative and fun.

Reading this book makes you want to sew an apron, regardless of whether you have any sewing experience. The character is skillful. He prepares the cloth, measures, and plans construction of his apron. Bruno shows that it is important to be careful with needles. He bleeds a little but quickly recovers from a needle stick and goes on with his work. The drawings are cute but also detailed. The picture of Bruno's workshop shows a must-see, beaver-shaped dress form toward the back of the room!
