More Sewing With Whimsy

Like the patterns and ideas

The book was as advertised. The cover had minimal dents, but everything else inside was pristine. It comes with full size patterns. I haven't yet tried making anything from this book, but from browsing its pages, I had no trouble understanding the instructions. The book doesn't completely lie flat when opened so that might be an issue for some people. I didn't give it a full five stars because it arrived later than expected, but that wasn't really a problem. The author recommends using her products of course (Whimsy sticks in particular) but to be honest, you can probably get the same result with just a ruler, or make one yourself using any sturdy material. Just saying.

This is one of my two "go to" books for embellishing toddler and girl dresses, which I sell online. The other is the first "Sewing with Whimsy" Book. I'm waiting for #3, I hope.There are so many creative ideas in these books that you can embellish each item in a new, creative way. Once you get comfortable with the techniques, you will add more ideas of your own.I find it extremely satisfying for my "creative" bug. I spend more time making the embellishments than I do sewing the dresses, and I do it all by hand. It would be nice to have an embroidery machine or other equipment to make some of the ideas easier to use or quicker, but you can use all the ideas without any expensive equipment.I really hope the author is working on another book !

I have purchased this book before, however I lost it in a move. I have a similar book by this author and I absolutely love the adorable designs and patterns. I'm sewing for my granddaughter. I also purchased the whimsy sticks. Check them out - fun stuff!!

I LOVE this book!! I love creating one of a kind accessories and clothing for my little princess and this book is just one of my favorites. I use it all the time, even if you are not an experience crafter or seamstress, this book will give you all the inspiration and motivation to want to learn to sew and create cute and unique accesories and clothing for the little girl in your life!

Cute ideas for children, but this book appears to me to be overdone. The clothing almost takes on a costume look instead of everyday clothing. Too many embellishments in one design. It makes the clothes look gaudy, instead of whimsical.

Haven't been able to sew out of this one. Barely even got to look at it before my mom confiscated it. Once again, the techniques can't be beat. Plan to make the cover top and pant for my 4 yr. old for this early summer. Hope to start SOON. Ordered both this book and Sewing With Whimsy together. BUY BOTH! Well worth the money.

I bought this to get some ideas in sewing for my grandchildren. There are some items I will have to order online as they aren't available at any of my local sewing supply stores. For that reason, I gave it 4 stars.

I love the book ,very prompt delivery .

Love the photos and ideas in this book,will definitely use some of the patterns.

Tolle Modelle und gute Ideen, leider sind nicht alle Schnitte enthalten. Liebevolle Handarbeiten, bunt und farbenfroh! Gute Beschreibung und Anleitung zum Nachnähen. Etwas für Kreative!

What's not to LOVE!

Simple sewing patterns with excellent ways to add that extra whimsy and make your projects extra special.
