The latest in the successful Kids Learn to...series, following on from Kids Learn to Knit and Kids Learn to Crochet, this book enlists the help of the two original animal characters, Pip and Peg, from the earlier books.

With their aid, children learn how to use a sewing needle and thread to make simple, practical and decorative projects, with six lovely projects acting as an incentive.
