Scandinavian Designs in Red and White by Nadja Knab-Leers
A beautiful book containing step-by-step instructions, templates and patterns for 55 gorgeous accessories and gifts for the home, all inspired by Scandinavian design in the fresh, timeless colour combination of red and white.
I absolutely love this bookI just want to live in its pages.(Katy Pearson)-The Lady magazine From the authors of Sew Scandinavian this book gives you 55 projects for the home in the striking and timeless colour combination of red and white. The projects are spilt into 4 chapters: In the garden, kitchen comforts, beautiful things for the home and gifts from the heart. There's also an additional chapter at the end with tehcniques, and templates plus there is a large pattern sheet in a pocket at the back of the book. The projects range from the more complex and time consuming patchwork table cloth, to quick & simple projects like teatowels and fabric hanging birds. There are projects for all abilities. Although most the projects are fabric based there are some other crafts too such as paper crafting, wood crafts and painting on to ceramics, wood & metal. There are lovely large photos of each project in the book and written instructions (no diagrams or step by step photos). For some of the projects the instructions seem a little brief (a paragraph or 2), but on the more complex projects you do get a page or so of instructions. Personally I would have preferred a few diagrams too, but then there wouldn't be so many projects in the book so I guess that is the trade off. You do get a lot of very striking projects which would help you bring a Scandinavian feel to your home.-Sewingdirectory.co.uk
