1: Go a step beyond "good average" with this book
My wife is a professional-level heirloom seamstress. She's sold dresses in excess of $300 multiple times, and has taught classes at a university summer sewing seminar. And she learned from the book. There are a number of things that are useful to her, and enabled her to go beyond what she was already capable of. It's not a book for someone at a basic to intermediate level of skill, but high intermediate to advanced people should find it very useful.

2: simple techniques for stunning results
This book details some stunning embroidery and embellishment techniques that even a beginner can accomplish. Each section includes a project with very clear instructions and diagrams. A complete supply list (including thread weight, needle type/size, what kind of stabilizer to use, which presser foot, how to adjust the bobbin/machine tension, etc.) is provided with each project. I higly recommend this book to anyone who has always wanted an embroidery machine but can't afford it.
