Fat Quarter: Vintage – 25 Projects to Make from Short Lengths of Fabric
Fat Quarter: Vintage is the latest addition to a fabulous series of stash-busting sewing books. Separated into five decades, from the 1930s to the 1970s, each chapter contains five projects using fat quarter fabric or scraps that reflect the era.
The projects have clear step-by-step instructions and beautiful accompanying photography, and there's a useful tools and technique section for those who are new to sewing.
Projects include:
- 1930s pin cushion
- 1940s flower brooch
- 1940s sewing machine cover
- 1950s apron
- 1950s sunglasses case
- 1960s child's dress
- 1970's draft stopper
- 1970s shopping bag
This book is ideal for using the leftover remnants of fabric, and the projects make great gifts.
