Synopsis: With more than 200,000 copies in print, Storeys One-Skein Wonders series is an unqualified success. Now, for the first time in the series, fabric takes center stage! And the timing couldnt be better. Sewing machine sales have doubled over the past 10 years, and crafters are discovering the joy of another kind of stitching. One-Yard Wonders will delight anyone who has ever fallen for fabric - from the novice sewing enthusiast to the lifelong seamstress. The book presents a delightful array of simple, stylish projects that can be made with just a single yard of fabric - from apparel to accessories, from plush toys to pet beds, from baby items to bags, and from home decor to Happy Birthday banners. Projects have a hip,contemporary flair, and most can be completed in a few hours. For each project, the book provides a full-color photograph, easy step-by-step instructions, and simple illustrations. Templates and pattern pieces are also included wherever needed, making this collection of 101 projects the best sewing deal ever. Great fabric demands to be purchased, even if its just a yard or two at a time. But such tantalizing textiles should never hide in a closet; One-Yard Wonders promises gift-worthy solutions for that stash of irresistible fabric-store buys. At last, its time to stop storing and start sewing! Like to sew? Want free fabric? Visit www.storey.com to enter Storeys Yard-of-the-Month Sweepstakes. No purchase necessary.
