sometimes simple is actually best

It may seem that this is too simple. But I keep coming back to it when I need a quick gift idea. There are baby items (bibs, blankets), patchwork square items like: Christmas tree skirt, table runners, pillows, quilts. Decorative towels, tissue box cover. All simple things that may've been done before...idk. I still like it alot, though, b/c I really do use this book. I just made a very nice big tote bag from here that is big enough to be an overnight bag.

great book!

This is a beautifully written book. The projects vary from the more simple to the more complex. The photographs are lovely and the instructions are quite clear. The fabric choices are very current. If you are interested in simple quilting projects, there are projects here as well. This book provides a lot of inspiration for the home dec sewer!
