Re: Kwik sew book?

Stretch & Sew was originally for straight stitch machines, I think - at least, I used their patterns extensively, took their classes, and did just fine with a straight stitch. wasn't so much their patterns though, as it was the techniques, and there is a book that also turns up frequently in the thrift stores that would be worth picking up.

Would this be it or is there another older version?

From the sewsassy.com site:
#113 Easy Sewing, the Kwik.Sew® Way $24.95 Kwik.Sew Web Site Description
Kwik.Sew's new book is simple enough for a beginner, yet exciting for an experienced sewer. Misses' sizes XS-S-M-L-XL. Patterns are included for simple shirts, pants, shorts and skirts with complete instruction on how to make style variations. Book has 88 pages filled with variations, tips and ideas to add that personal touch. Detailed instructions to make your garments look professionally done.

Thanks for the info,

Here's a collection of their books - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170011834310
The one on top - Stretch & Sew Instruction Book for Sewing with Knit Fabrics by Ann Person - is the one I was thinking of.

This is not my listing, and I don't know the seller. It's just an easy reference so you know what I'm talking about.
