Wonderful projects August 19, 2008
I cannot put this book down! All the projects are beautiful and even if you do not intend to sew anything, it is worth having for the lovely pictures and inspiration. The fabrics used are in gorgeous shades of pale green, blue and pink - some with small flowers, some stripes and some plain. The fabrics are available from a website detailed at the back of the book. I intend to make many of the projects such as the little 'duffle' style bag, make-up bag, wall holder for magazines, needlecase, quilted placemats, angels - there is even a pattern for slippers! The patterns include some embroidery and the applique 'houses' on the quilt can be used for many other projects. The instructions are not the 'step-by-step' picture type but are clear enough if you have some basic sewing experience. I am off to buy some of the other books in this range.

Gorgeous things to make! August 17, 2008
Thought I'd just find one or two things to catch my interest as I am not really into pink, and the cover is pink, pink, pink! But what a gorgeous book, full of lovely things...I just want to make everything! I have already made the cafetiere cover and one of the makeup pouches (though in brighter colours, but they still look great!)

Super book. Lots of inspiration! Makes you want to paint all your furniture white and coordinate everything in your home!

Another Tone Finnanger Classic! August 1, 2008
This is yet another beautiful book by Tone Finnanger. Packed full of great ideas for shabby chic interiors. My children love these designs, and I enjoy creating them! Would recommend to all crafters.

What a fantastic book July 20, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful

What a wonderful book, other sewing project books I have bought have looked and sounded great, but when you actually open the book they have been rather a let down on pictures and content and there may only be one or two things out of it that are worth making, so I wasnt sure what this book would offer.
Having received the book I was very very pleasantly surprised, the pictures are great, the items to make made me want to start straight away, and the instructions are clear and best of all the patterns are actual sized, none of this having to enlarge the patterns on photocopiers.
There were items in the book that I had seen in shops and thought I wonder if I could get a pattern for that and there it was, unusual but useful items to make for home and garden, well worth buying at a great price, highly recommended.

Lush, but not great for beginners. July 5, 2008
Absolutely beautiful pictures, adorable projects, but very little instruction with virtually no detail, which was a real pain for me! I will persevere though because, as I said, the projects are worth it.
