Helping your kids look the part for their imaginative play is easy with Superhero Sewing.

Superhero Sewing presents easy sewing projects for encouraging and satisfying your child's love of - and need for - richly imaginative play.

Each project is marked with a level of difficulty - no sew, easy, or intermediate - and two full-size pull-out patterns sheets are included.
