Product Description

More Sewing for the Home is a helpful planning and coordinating guide for the do-it-yourself home decor sewer. You will find tips and techniques used by professional designers to help you plan and decorate in your own unique style.
 
The first section covers developing a home decorating plan, how to mix prints and colors, and how to select the appropriate fiber and finish for the project, as well as construction basics and designer tips.
The rest of the book is divided into three sections:
o Window Treatments -- Shows how-too for creating tent-flap curtains, tapered valances, padded cornices, and more.
o Cushions & Pillows -- Covers every style such as tie-tab pillows, mock box pillows, and trendy double-flange pillows.
o Bed & Bath -- Includes step-by-step instructions for duvet covers, futon covers, and sink & vanity skirts, and shower curtains.

Colorful photographs show how your project should look at each step of construction, ensuring success.

Fabulous instructions for classic designs.4
Although the fabric choices in the pictures are dated, the designs and projects are CLASSIC(swags and jabots, cornices, padded headboards, pinch pleated drapes, bedskirts, pillows and duvet covers...). The step by step, illustrated instructions are VERY easy to follow.

Singer's "More Sewing for the Home" saves you $$!5
While many of the books in the Singer Sewing Reference Library are very good, I have found the "Sewing for the Home" series of the books to be the best. These books are lavishly illustrated, with detailed color photographs of every step of the sewing process for home decor items. After purchasing this book, I was able to create lovely custom home decor projects at huge cost savings over custom-made or purchasing ready made items. Even a beginner can achieve very good results with home decor projects using the instructions and methods found in this book. If you are interested in home decor sewing, then you should add this book to your sewing library
