From the Publisher
This pattern book puts wonderful gifts and functional sewing items within reach for quilters of any skill level. Each of the 17 projects requires just a little time and a few materials to sew a creative accessory that's sure to earn compliments. Patterns include a patchwork needlebook, tote bag, ornament, bookcover, eyeglass case, sewing pouch and tea cozy. There's even a pattern for a roomy backpack and an attractive chatelaine to be worn around the neck for keeping sewing tools close at hand. A clever double pocket can be worn on a belt and is designed to hold a current project and notions. Color photos provide inspiration for choosing just the right fabrics and the author shares plenty of tips to help quilters give their projects special "zing." Machine-sewing techniques include easy foundation piecing and "downsizing" in which units are sewn first and then trimmed for accuracy. Quick projects for creative and personal gifts plus lots of sewing fun are packed between the covers of this book.
