<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class=MsoNormal>Inspired by the picturesque Devon countryside where they live, crafters Emma Curtis and Elizabeth Parnell have created a book packed full of designs for bags, accessories, and delightful items for the home in a style that is fresh, feminine, and unmistakably English. The book carefully describes each project with an emphasis on the function and practicality of the projects, which are divided into five sections: gifts, family-life projects, household items, personal items, and garden and entertainment decorations. The sewing designs are characterized by a simple, vintage-floral-patterned style, but it is the unique voice of the two passionate English crafters that presents a distinct focus on family and home, making the projects stand out from others. Perfect for those new to sewing as well as more seasoned stitchers, the techniques are described in a down-to-earth and simplified way with helpful images taking the reader through each step of every project.
