I just got my hands on a copy of
Stitch Savvy by
Deborah Moebes. First, the part where I get excited because some of my
Outside Oslo fabric makes an appearance, including that beautiful shot on the cover.
Some Tulip.
Some Picket.
Second, the part where I admire all the lovely projects and pick out some of my favorites:
A fun footstool slipcover.
A really cute purse. You can also sew the shirt. If you wear them together, you will laugh happily.
There are even instructions for a jacket. If I managed to sew an entire jacket, I wouldn't be able to stop beaming, either.
I haven't studied the book enough to evaluate the instructions, but I love the visual style of it. All the fabrics Deborah uses are terrific, and the photos look clear and helpful. You can peek inside and get a copy at
Amazon.
