This may be the most outstanding video sewing instruction I've ever encountered. First, the video camera was set in a position that the viewer had a complete view of exactly what was doing each step of the way . . . and in a measured pace so you could actually see exactly what she was doing.
Second, Amanda Todaro is an expert sewing and very careful in what tips she provides along the way. She speaks very clearly and it was easy to follow along because of that.
Truly the best that Creativebug provides! Well done.
