Except for a large bag (12 x 17") and a fabric flower, I didn't find the projects in this book of much interest. The author used gathers, pleats, textures to add interest to pillows, quilts, fabric bracelets and scarves.

This short sewing book has the most modern twist on fabric and design. I have many things that must now be constructed!

Every idea in the book is an age-old technique demonstrated in modern fabric. There are not enough innovative projects to justify the price--twisted fabric decorative balls, how are these modern?
