Traditional needlecrafts are as popular as ever as more and more of us
are seeking to 'make do and mend' as a way of saving money. However,
making beautiful and original handmade items is a great way to add style
and glamour to your home - and can be fun too. As part of a series,
Love...Sewing contains a collection of 25 wonderful projects - all of
which are really easy to create. Soft furnishings are an essential part
of any home - colour, texture and pattern add warmth and comfort. Using
simple sewing techniques and bright, fresh fabrics, this book shows you
how to create a range of soft furnishings and other items, from
cushions, throws and bags to a cot quilt, table linen and even a blind.
All the projects have clear step-by-step instructions and photographs
taking you through the various stages, making them straightforward and
simple, even for the beginner. A basics section at the front of the book
takes you through all the essential techniques, from simple hems and
seams to piping and buttonholes.
