 A must-have for the serious sewing room! September 10, 1998
84 out of 86 found this review helpful
This book puts in one place all the different ways you know how to work fabric: pleats, gathers, darts, etc. All the little things you learned over the years and never got to categorize, plus a few new ones you didn't think of yet. This lady deserves a standing ovation for putting together what so many of us know, but never put to paper. The fact that all the work is done on white material adds to the ability to see exactly what she is doing; no prints or stripes to detract from the simplistic beauty of worked fabric. This book is good for any one, be you beginner or experienced sewing hand. It has, in a short 2 weeks, become one of my favorite books and earned the top shelf honors!
inspired new work not only in fabric but in other media January 12, 1998

Clearly-writtena and well-illustrated, this book not only inspired a number of designs to be executed in fibre, but also in metals. A wood-working friend of mine borrowed it and is adapting some of the techniqiues to carving and inlay techniques. This is an excellent "how-to guide" that actively encourages the reader to apply and adapt these techniques to expand their range of capabilities.
