C&T Publishing's Design Collective is a series of craft sewing books that showcases select groups of fresh, contemporary designers. The books in this series feature unique projects created by artists with a presence on popular websites such as etsy.com.
June 12 If you own a beach house, have decorated parts of your home
in a coastal theme or simply love the beach, this book will be a
real treasure. There are a generous 25 projects between the covers,
all made with a "seaside" theme. They include cushions, quilts,
softies, a bag and a hat, made with a variety of techniques:
applique, hand and machine embroidery, garment sewing and quilting
among them. Twenty-two different designers have contributed
projects, which has resulted in a spectrum of styles, colours and
materials. We'll admit that our favourites were the seahorse,
rainbow fish and hermit crab softies, and the roomy beach bag that
has zippered pckets, draw string closure, adjustable shoulder strap
and carry handle. The instructions seem quite detailed, but there
aren't many diagrams so visual learners will need to concentrate.
That said, most of the projects are relatively straighforward so we
don't think you'll encounter too many difficulties.
