Book Description

Feb 9 2012
By replacing pens and pencils with needle and thread, and paint with fabric appliqué, Chloe Owens has applied artistic principles to sewing and created these unique projects showing her true passion for handcrafted things.

Packed full of 35 crafty ideas, Chloe uses a wide variety of techniques—from embellishment and adornment to freehand embroidery—that are forward thinking but still inspired by vintage style. Start by making something fun for a lunch with friends in Cooking Up A Storm. There are pretty placemats, table decorations, and even an apron for the hostess. In Cuddly Companions you will find a giraffe, lion, and bonkers bobtail bunnies to sew, each one decorated with pretty stitches. Gifts comes next, with tote bags and quilts that friends will love to receive. If you adore long lie-ins then Rest Your Weary Head has pillows with appliqué and embellishments, plus a Holly Golightly inspired eyemask. Finally, Room Decorations has wall murals and hangings to add a splash of color to your home. Every project comes with step-bystep instructions and adorable artworks, making everything so simple to stitch. There is also a handy

techniques section and templates to help you along the way. So what are you waiting for? Grab a needle and thread and get down to some seriously creative crafting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely and whimsical! Mar 11 2013
Format:Hardcover
I am loving this book! So glad I purchased it.

My 9 year old daughter has even completed a few of the easier projects like the Springtime Showers Mobile. My favourite so far has been the book cover project. I've made them as gifts and they've been so loved!

5.0 out of 5 stars So very impressed! April 16 2012
By Dans. - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I find most craft books aimed at beginner level; the designs are basic and dull. I usually only find one idea out of the whole book. This book however, is filled with quirky, whimsical and wonderful ideas. I love the table runner and cushions. The cute little rain cloud brooch and applique portraits.

The book is aesthetically pleasing for those of who judge a book by its cover (and illustrated contents) - that's me by the way, I want to inspired by not just the projects but also by the way the book is put together. It has detailed instructions and pictures for most of the points.

It has great ideas for gifts, home and self.... I can not wait to get stuck into it!

Have fun!

This is a wonderful book with lots of clearly demonstrated ideas. The author has a light, playful way of looking at her art and it will be fun to create similar items shown in this book. I can't wait!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sassy applique Sep 12 2012
By SaraR - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I love this book. It's beautiful to look at. I would consider doing almost all of the projects, which I never find to be the case with craft type books. Like one of the previous commenters, the table runner is lovely and I will be replicating it as soon as possible!
