This beautiful sewing book is one that you will surely treasure and actually use! Meg McElwee is the author of the popular blog "Sew Liberated" where she sells her simple yet stylish clothing (for women and children) and accessory patterns (I love her reading pillow!) starting at $11.95 ~~ which are definitely worth the money with their ease of use, full sized patterns and clear diagrammed instructions. As a beginner sewer I have used several of her "shop" patterns without problem and they have turned out..
I just received this and can see that I will be learning a lot from this book. The projects are things that I actually want to make! You can clearly see that the author put a lot of thought into this book and this one really stands out from a few of the craft/sewings books that I recently bought. I really like the detailed, whimsical and natural way that shines through in her sewing. I can't wait to make the camera bag...very cool! Looking forward to really sitting down and reading this :)
