Posted - Dec 04 2014 : 05:25:04 AM Hi everyone,
I'm almost done writing a book about vintage sewing machine repair. I've created several covers and wondered which one you like? I started with 6 and have narrowed it down to 4. Not sure if I should create more?
I need some thoughts on these, thanks

Posted - Dec 25 2014 : 05:08:53 AM I like #1 best. I was wondering if the phrase at the bottom "for the home sewer" is really necessary since it is a do it yourself book. Seems to just add a little more than is needed. Just my opinion, so take it for what it is worth to you. Can't wait to get a copy no matter which cover you choose!

Posted - Dec 06 2014 : 9:36:23 PM I like number 1 the best. I like that it clearly will talk about multiple machines by having different ones on the cover. It is also nice to see the wonderful pictures of the machines.

Posted - Dec 06 2014 : 3:55:48 PM thanks, i appreciate all the feedback. I just rewired my Singer 201-2's motor today, so that will be added to the book. It's such a work in progress

Posted - Dec 06 2014 : 3:48:14 PM Wow, what an accomplishment! How exciting and needed knowledge for many. I like cover #2 which for my taste is more focused without the eye bouncing around too much and a great picture. Best to you!

Posted - Dec 05 2014 : 05:55:06 AM I think I like #2 better. It seems to impart a sense of quiet that we often think of as "yesteryear". I love the other pictures though and I'm guessing they are sprinkled among the pages of the book. I'm excited for you and the books release.

Posted - Dec 04 2014 : 07:36:52 AM I like 2 and 3. Actually, they're all nice covers. But the big question is, when can we GET the book. How exciting.

Posted - Dec 04 2014 : 06:35:38 AM Connie, I am so proud of you for writing a book about what you love and know so much about. I hope for you much success with it.
I like #2. It's got less going on visually; it was easier for me to read and know what the book is all about. The old sewing machine is beautiful.
