Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
A simple slipover stole becomes a removable embellishment for a plain denim shirt. A pair of white tennis shoes becomes a Fourth of July fashion statement with the addition of appliqu d denim stars and bright red shoelaces. This addition to Mulari's now-considerable library of creative sewing books is loaded with ideas like these for embellishing and adding designer touches to off-the-rack denim garments like vests, shirts, and jackets. Techniques used include patchwork, fabric painting, weaving, couching appliqu , and stamping, and each project is complete with a materials list, full-color photos, and step-by-step instructions. Public libraries will want this one.
