This is a really lovely book and makes you realise what all the fuss is about japanese craft books - lovely simple designs with clear explanations - I have made several of them and had success with them all - I bought the patchwork one on the strength of this one being so good - but that was was a disappointment. This, on the other hand gets 11 out of ten
Format:Paperback
I really enjoy reading this book. Akiko's love of natural fabrics is expressed in the introduction to each chapter. The projects are simple and achievable with lovely results. If you are an accomplished stitcher then you can use this book as a starting point and go on to create your own interpretation of the designs. You may not learn new techniques as most of the projects are quick and easy to make but you will be inspired to rush out and buy natural fabrics. I have made several draw string bags, a slouch bag and the lunch bag and I am delighted with the results.

I was very ansious to receive this book and enjoy it to the fullest but i was a bit sad when i was able to explore it.
The images are great and the grafics are clear and helpful but in therms of content i was desapointed because the projects are just to simple.
In a price/quality ratio this book doesn't do it for me. Sorry...
