Sewing machine book recommendations for beginners

[minesapackofminstrels]

I am going to get a sewing machine but am a complete beginner. What books would you recommend to start me off. Thanks

this is an incredibly helpful book

My friend gave me this when I started a few weeks ago:

www.amazon.co.uk/Love-First-Stitch-Demystifying-Dressmaking/dp/1849493650/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1408030373&sr=1-1&keywords=tilly+and+the+buttons

It's really easy to use, explains things simply, and includes patterns. I've made the pyjama bottoms and have had lots of compliments.
