Critics Review

Bright and contemporary, this will prove popular. 25 projects in all include great things to make like bags, pincushions, notebooks. The style is supposed to be Scandinavian, but did not immediately hit me as such. It looks like everyday modern craft fayre. I did like the fabrics and the projects very much and this book has a contemporary styling. My favourite project was the knitting bag.-Yarnsandfabrics.co.uk/crafts This book has over 25 bright and cheerful projects either incorporating floral designs, or using floral fabrics alongside traditional patchwork & quilting techniques. There is a great range of projects from bags, cushions and quilts to pin cushions, notebook covers and a pencil case, there should be something for everyone to make. I love the bright and colourful prints that have been used on the projects and they have used colourful diagrams which match perfectly and make this a very cheerful book. The projects have step by step instructions, a materials list and lots of useful diagrams as well as templates at the back of the book and a techniques section at the front.-sewingdirectory.co.uk Flower Power Patchwork is crammed to the brim with delightful pretty floral designs for organising your sewing space and enhancing your home.
