Description

A gorgeous book for beginner sewers and crafters. Pip Lincolne shows you how to make 24 beautiful things for yourself, your home and your family. There's a blanket to roll up and take to the movies, cute-as-a-button kids' trousers and a super pretty wrapskirt. Learn how to make cushion covers from second-hand shirts or a simple sundress for lazy summer days in the park. Each project is carefully designed for beginner sewers, with an easy-to-use pattern and a list of all of the materials you will need. Pip also takes you through a range of simple sewing techniques and stitches, and there are heaps of suggestions for variations so you can experiment with new ideas once you've got your head around the basics.
