Sewing in No Time sets out 50 simple step-by-step projects using nothing more than the most basic of sewing skills. Cosy and colourful scatter cushions, stylish curtains and blinds, elegant table linen, handy storage bags and baskets, a comfy cushion for a garden bench and even a funky play tent for the kids to run riot in: these are just a few of the ideas that Emma Hardy has designed using readily available fabrics and trims. Illustrated throughout using specially commissioned photographs and easy-to-follow step-by-step diagrams, Sewing in No Time is the perfect book for people who are big on ideas but short of time. Whether your home is a traditional country cottage or a modern warehouse-style apartment, you’re sure to find plenty of ideas to inspire you. Store-bought soft furnishings can be expensive and the choice is often limited―but with so many gorgeous designer fabrics on sale, there’s never been a better time to make your own. Emma Hardy is a stylist and designer who has worked on various lifestyle and interiors magazines, including Country Homes and Interiors and Marie Claire . Her previous books include Sewing for children , Green Crafts for Children , Making Children s Clothes , Quilting in No Time , Fast, Fun Cards , and Cute and Easy Costumes for Kids, all published by CICO.
