Great Book!
I found this book in a costume shop that I was working at and decided to buy it for myself. The shop needed me to use their coverstitch machine for some projects and I didnt have a lot of experience with these machines so the book walked me through it successfully. Also, I had purchased a little Juki coverstitch a while ago and hadn't used it yet, so this book helped a lot and now Ive been able to move forward.

Covers everything that the Coverstitch machine can do.
This book is easy to read and will be easy to find the specific area I will need to go to when I'm making an item. Each step is broken down, with pictures, and is very easy to understand. The author, Johanna Lundstrom, has taken her experience and gathered the experience from other experts and put it in this book, saving the reader from having to search for information. I plan to take every area she has explained and practice it on scrap material, so I am more comfortable with what this great machine can do.

Coverstitch information to copy ready to wear!
Johanna Lundstrom did an excellent job of presenting details essential to quality coverstitching, which makes this an excellent source for beginning coverstitch sewers, as well as for those who have begun using a coverstitch machine, but want their projects to look more like ready to wear. Johanna includes interviews from professional coverstitch educators, as well as coverstitch machine operators with years of experience in the manufacturing clothing industry, and includes details about a variety of coverstitch machines, including the special presser feet and attachments, which help keep coverstitches looking professional. I love that Johanna includes information about copying ready to wear coverstitch techniques, because that is what most of us buy a coverstitch machine for, to make our sewing look professional!

Clear and thorough overview
Excellent book to give you the basics of using a cover-stitch machine if you're new to using one or just thinking of buying one. Lots of trouble-shooting advice. Written in 2019, the information is current. Very good photos and practical advice make this a great resource. I enjoy Johanna's You Tube videos on this topic as well.

This book could be your sanity saver!
This book is well researched and well resourced. Coverstitch machines can be tricky, and at times temperamental little treasures. This book has helpful tips on how to get the best out of your machine. This book also has very clear and concise instructions on how to achieve similar results, as to what is available on ready to wear cloths. It is an excellent addition to my sewing library.

Ottimo
Con questo ho finito di avere tutta la serie di libri dell'autrice, comprato prima di avere in regalo (inaspettata!) una macchina punto copertura, casualmente ho poi scelto senza saperlo la stessa identica macchina dell'autrice, quindi mi ha aiutato tantissimo. La Lundstrom è veramente brava, e copre campi del cucito che non sono trattati da altri (come il jeans, o l'abbigliamento tecnico).

Indispensable pour la recouvreuse
C'est le livre que j'aurais apprécié d'acheter quand j'ai acheté ma recouvreuse, je vais progresser à grand pas maintenant sur ma machine. Dans ce livre, il y a tout le nécessaire pour bien régler cette machine et en obtenir le maximum. Bravo et merci Johanna. Ton blog aussi est super pour compléter.
