Simple Gifts to Stitch


"Simple Gifts to Stitch - 30 Elegant and Easy Projects" by Jocelyn Worrall. 2007 $19.95 ISBN: 978-0-307-34756-5 Library call No. 746 With comments of Martha Stewart and Todd Oldham on the back cover, you get an idea these projects might be worthy. Sections are divided into Gifts for Home, Gifts for Baby and Children, Gifts for Special Occasions. I think the book's strengths are particularly strong for cute and unusual projects for children and babies. The Tri Pocket Ticking Tote on the cover and the Magic Rain Poncho are clever. I liked the Modern Apron on page 77 and the Terrycloth Bunny on page 102. The bias apron calls for only 1 yard of 58" wide fabric. The bunnies will be easy and cute to make for Easter basket tuck-ins. There's a good variety of other projects for a range of sewing skills and needs.
