Random House just published this three beautiful sewing projects books.
Chic & Simple Sewing, Christine Haynes
Chic & Simple Sewing shows you how to make modern, stylish, and fun clothes you’ll want to wear every day. Plus, you’re in control. You pick the fabrics, the cut, the size—all tailored just for you, not mass-manufactured on an assembly line. For about the price of two or three commercial sewing patterns, this book will give you full-size patterns to make more than 20 garments, including a classic shift, A-line skirt, and figure-flattering wrap dress.
Linen, Wool, Cotton, Akiko Mano
Objects sewn with all-natural fabrics have an unmistakable look and feel that makes them stand out from the “ordinary.” Natural fabrics are more interesting, almost always more comfortable, and they lend themselves wonderfully to all sorts of homemade projects. The simple sewing projects in this book offer home accessories made from linen, wool, and cotton. From aprons to blankets and lunch bags, each project will add a little bit of warmth and comfort to any home. Through clear instruction and easy-to-follow diagrams, all of these projects are perfect for the novice sewer; yet the sophisticated charmand utile nature of each item will also appeal to the more experienced seamster.
Patchwork Style, Suzuko Koseki
Nothing conveys a feeling of warmth and comfort like the traditional art of patchwork. This book brings patchwork into the twenty-first century with a treasury of projects you can make that are bold, bright, and innovative—yet just as homey and warm as traditional patchwork. The thirty-four projects presented in this book explore the techniques of patchwork sewing, appliqué, and machine quilting and include pouches and handbags, quilts and pillow cases, tissue cases and pot holders, all with a distinctive Scandinavian flair. The projects’ minimalist style, attention to detail, and simple aesthetic speak to our desire to create a warm and authentic life at home.Each project is presented through stunning photographs that exemplify the creative, calming, and enriching qualities of the craft. Detailed diagrams and instructions make each project easy enough to follow for even the beginning sewer.
