Review :
Simple, effective projects encourage you to try your hand at patchwork. Ideal for all skill levels, especially the beginner. Learn the basics and hone your skills on these fabulous, fun projects. I can see a work table full of teenagers and Mum's getting involved too. Quick and easy projects give you a great introduction to this charismatic craft. This 48-page book is very reasonably priced and makes a great gift too.-KarenPlatt.co.uk Learn the basics and then follow the step-by-step projects which have been specifically designed with beginners in mind. Cushions and pillows, belts and bags... lots to keep you busy!-Craftsman Craft & Design An ideal book for beginners with step-by-step photography and easy to follow instructions aimed at young teenagers, but sadly no boys are featured here! This is odd since the author has dedicated the book to her two sons. Items to make include a pin cushion, a bag, a belt, cushions and decorative items such as hearts. Nothing looks too daunting, there are good 'Top Tips' throughout and the layout is colourful, attractive and inviting.-Fabrications It's simple, lots of fun, and great to share with youngsters. Nancy Nicholson teaches the basics and shows, in step-by-step sequences, how to create beautiful cushions, belts, birds and bags. The creative projects are designed with the beginner in mind and the techniques and stages are clearly explained. The book is full of step-by-step photographs, easy to follow instructions, simple techniques and lots of creative ideas.-Machine Knitting Monthly Designed with beginners in mind these books are from the 'Start To' series, which also includes Knitting, Felting, Beading, Applique, Embroidery and Quilting. They provide a comprehensive introduction to material, equipment and techniques on each subject, before embarking on simple but fun and useful projects. The illustrations, photography and numbered instructions are clear, concise and easy to follow and each project contains a list of the required materials. There are four quick and easy Batik projects using wax and dye to decorate scarves, wall hangings, bracelets, bags and books. Seven Patchwork projects including a pet's quilt, a pin cushion, a belt, a pillow and a bag are all funky, stylish and fun.-Sew Today
