Macmillan Publishers Sew!: Exclusive Cath Kidston Designs for Over 40 Simple Sewing Projects

Ero gia' un'amiratrice di Cath Kidston. Poi ho avuto modo di sapere che ha scritto anche un libro, quindi l'ho acquistato. Bellissimi progetti per non dire che ci sono anche le materie prime (stoffa, carta modello, ecc) per cucire la borsa della copertina.

Cath Kidston's book 'Sew!' was perfect to get me back into sewing. The beginning of the book reviews supplies and terms used in sewing. The projects range from very easy to moderate difficulty. The supplies are provided to complete one project using Cath's adorable fabric. Success is almost guaranteed - and that is motivation enough to resume a hobby that had been sitting in a corner!

本屋でずっと気になっていたのが安くなっていたので、購入しました。私の中のカテゴリは絵本です。

superbe livre en anglais livré avec un kit permettant la réalisation du sac figurant sur la couvertureDe nombreux projets faciles à réaliser et à adapter, de bonnes idées.Sa lecture nécessite un niveau d'anglais faible car les illustrations sont claires pour qui a déjà cousu.

I think this is a lovely book with interesting projects to tackle. It comes with precut CK fabric, buttons, and a CK label to make a little handbag (already claimed by my 8 year old daughter!) It also has a pattern sheet to cover all items in the book. There is a good selection of projects, many of which would be good for beginners (lavender bags, aprons, coathangers) and more difficult things too. I think ideally though, it would be useful to know your way round a sewing machine and have a bit of pattern cutting experience as the instructions on some of the projects could be confusing for beginners.I think it would be a great gift for anyone into making their own bits and pieces and who likes the shabby chic look.I got this book half price off Amazon which I thought was very good value.
