"This friendly, engaging work might please the sewer seeking projects in the contemporary and adorable vein." --"Publishers Weekly"
Product Description
From the author of Meet Me at Mike's comes Sew La Tea Do, a gorgeous book for beginner sewers and crafters. Pip Lincolne shows you how to make 24 beautiful things for yourself, your home and your family. There's a blanket to roll up and take to the movies, cute-as-a-button kids' trousers and a super pretty wrap skirt. Learn how to make cushion covers from second-hand shirts or a simple sundress for lazy summer days in the park. Each project is carefully designed for beginner sewers, with an easy-to-use pattern and a list of all of the materials you will need. Pip also takes you through a range of simple sewing techniques and stitches, and there are heaps of suggestions for variations so you can experiment with new ideas once you've got your head around the basics. If you've ever wanted to try making your own clothes and accessories or are looking for some new sewing projects, Sew La Tea Do will encourage and inspire you to create beautiful pieces that you can wear, use and love.

Love this book. Very inspirational, even if i don't directly make the things from the book, it has kick started me feeling creative and wanting to get sewing. I am looking forward to making lots from the book though. The photographs in the book are styled nicely too.

Craft books have to lie flat so that you can use them properly and patterns are always useful - this book has both. In this book, you'll find contemporary children's clothes and useful items like Pyjama bags - the cutest you've ever seen. Adults get the same treatment, with simple contemporary dresses for women and just one pants pattern for men. My favourite is the Miss Marlo dress. Then there are blankets, cushions and pillowcases (very cute), quilts and more for the home. Whilst you are busy making, have a stack of Pip's choc chip biscuits on hand, the recipe is at the back of the book. That's it then, life sorted in one chic book.

Worth the price!

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I love the fox quilt on the cover, and saw an article featuring the author in Mollie Makes magazine, but I was hesitant to purchase the book because it seemed fairly expensive. Well, it includes paper patterns for almost every project in the book! The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because there are full pages and pages of beautiful photography of random things, while the instructions are in a smaller font and sometimes cramped. I think it would have been nicer if the (admittedly lovely) inspirational photos were either smaller or kept to a minimum, and more room was given to instructions and diagrams.
