Taken from the Books introduction;
Fab fabrics, stylish trimmings and fancy iron-on motifs are the ingredients for the exciting sewing projects from Atelyeah in this book. Create quirky birds for your room, a fun toy for your dog, cool friendship bracelets, cosy wrist warmers and much, much more!
With a little crafting skill, you can make great things for yourself or sew gifts for your friends and family. And it doesn't matter if you've never used a sewing machine before. With this book, you'll soon have your sewing licence. Your sewing test is on page 24, and you'll pass it easily once you've read about all the tools and materials you need (on pages 7 to 13) and learned the basics of sewing, which are explained on pages 14 to 23.
To help you ace every project, we've kept the patterns simple, and there are lots of photos as well as step-by-step instructions. The squirrels from Atelyeah are also always on hand to help. They know absolutely every sewing trick and will give you lots of useful tips. And they've sprinkled hazelnuts throughout the book. Why? Simple: the number of nuts shows you at a glance whether a project is easy or more advanced. The more nuts, the more difficult the project.
Some projects have several variations, so you can choose colours and fabrics to suit your style or mood. And if you have other creative ideas, don't be afraid to do your own thing!
Have fun sewing!
