About this ebook
Celebrated designer Amy Butler brings her fresh, modern style to the timeless craft of sewing. In this lavishly illustrated collection of patterns, she presents more than 25 charming projects ranging from cushy floor cushions to smart aprons to stylish handbags. Lush photographs inspire, while how-to illustrations and straightforward text (minus the confusing sewing lingo) make it a cinch to achieve beautifully finished projects. In addition, Amy offers thoughtful tips on finding and treating new or vintage fabrics, an easy-to-navigate techniques section, and a glossary and resource guide at back. Whether it's chic placemats and napkins for the kitchen, a luxurious kimono-style robe for the bath, or handy organizer baskets for the home office Amy Butler's In Stitches makes it easy to create beautiful accessories for every room and every mood.

Reviews for Amy Butler's In Stitches
Rating: 3.75 out of 5 stars
4/5
4 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book is everything that I want a simple, beginner craft book to be! Her instructions tell you precisely what type of fabric should be used and why. In fact, sometimes the instructions border on the "isn't that obvious?" variety. In my experience, it is the little (obvious to some) details that go overlooked and are missing from pattern books. I like that each pattern easily complements the next and that this collection of patterns truly can be made for one household. I also like that they range from the simple afternoon project (e.g. placemats & napkins) to the more complex (e.g. quilt).
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I LOVE this book. Gorgeous pictures, simple instructions. I haven't had the opportunity to make anything from the book but I will.
