Product Description

High fashion goes digital with Diana Eng! In Fashion Geek, Diana pioneers an emerging generation of tech savvy women crafters (or would-be crafters) who demand stylish yet practical designs that are chemically charged. Now you can take simple, girly items such as a hoodie or scarf and transform them into must-have techno-accessories through approachable, step-by-step directions. Full-color photos make it easy to see how every project comes to life.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fashion Geek is lots of fun!, April 7, 2009

By	CCP "Sue C." (OH) - See all my reviews

This book not only has some very cute accessory/fashion combos, but also contains some great easy-to-make patterns for clever, inexpensive gifts that tweens & teens will particularly like. In these financially challenging times, this is a great resource or can be a great gift for crafters who may like to include fun "techno" items in their repertoire!
