Product Description

Product Description

Featuring original patterns to stitch an exciting variety of children's soft toys, this book also contains sewing and embroidery projects for stitchers of all abilities. It contains projects suitable for babies and children up to 6 years, and step-by-step instructions and templates for all the designs. Any child would love to have one of the enchanting fabric toys in this exciting new book of sewing projects. Claire Garland has designed a range of easy-to-make, colourful and cuddly friends, suitable for children from 0-6 years old. The great toys in this book range from smiley dinosaurs, including a baby and its egg, to a fun and funky rag doll, complete with her own smart wardrobe of fashionable clothes. The projects use basic sewing and embroidery skills, and range from very simple to the slightly more complex. All the instructions are clearly explained, with a useful list of the materials and equipment required at the start of each project. The pattern templates for fabric cutting are also included, as well as tip boxes giving handy hints to save time, or suggesting alternative ideas for embellishments. If you want to make a unique gift for the child in your life, Claire's inspirational patterns will make you want to pick up your needle and start sewing. "Toys to Sew" is the companion volume to "Toys to Knit", which includes a range of desirable projects to knit from Rowan knitting consultant Tracy Chapman.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun and easy!, 26 Dec 2006
By M. Allcock "mystic flower" (Oxfordshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The book has a charming style to it, with patterns written simply and with beautiful photographs. Some of the patterns are basic, such as dolls, and some are contemporary, with roots in vintage fashion and craft fairs. The only shortfalls of this book are that it could have been longer, and you have to photocopy/enlarge the patterns rather than tracing them. These are minor setbacks, and overall the book is delightful!

3.0 out of 5 stars not what I'd hoped, 25 April 2008
By Rachel Bridgeman "BookWyrm" (Wales) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am a big fan of Claire Garland, her designs are whimsical and retro but in a way that can be adapted to your own style of crafting but this book was a let down. It is specifically because this is a sewing book containing patterns that need copying and enlarging but the size of the book-a square- meant that you sometimes had to copy a page twice to get the entire design.
It was only a little thing but when you consider that you have to enlarge by 100% on most designs you will spend a lot of time copying.
I think it was a lack of foresight on the publishers part.
