Quilting
History
of Baby Quilts: Patterns for Crib & Doll Quilts
Make doll and baby quilts typical of different periods in history.
Each pattern includes some history and information on how the
quilt would have been made during that time. There's a nine patch
that could be made by most children and a log cabin that an older
child could make. Both sewing and history would be learned from
each pattern.

Quilters at all levels exchange information, make new friends
and swap fabric & blocks here. Hosted by Susan Druding.
A Delphi forum, so ask a parent if you may sign up.

- Sew Fast Sew Easy : All You Need to Know When
You Start to Sew
by Elissa K. Meyric
- The only mistake that I made in purchasing this book was
that I bought it after I had spent money on other, more complicated,
books marketed towards the beginning sewer. If you have literally
NO prior experience, cannot decipher a "selvage" from
a "crosswise grain," buy this book. It is elementary
in its explanation and directions, without being condescending.

- Design-It-Yourself Clothes
- Patternmaking Simplified
- Cal Patch
- Former Urban Outfitters designer Cal Patch brings her youthful aesthetic to a how-to book. If you want to wear something you canÕt find on store racks and make clothes that express your individual style, or if youÕve reached a sewing plateau and want to add pattern drafting to your repertoire, Design-It-Yourself Clothes is the book you have been waiting for.
