Mary Mulari always gets 5 stars in my book. Can't go wrong here. The backpack is easy and looks great, and you have a wealth of great gifts anytime of year. Her backpack purse is wonderful to use, the pleated pouches are great and so easy to make, the travel dresser trays are a hit, and my favorite is the little pouch you put around your neck and hide under your clothes. I can't wait to use mine! She's done it again, thank you so much!

I originally checked this book out of my local library, and liked it so much that I ended up buying it. The projects are well-described and easy to complete. The sewing suggestions and pictures are helpful. I sew a bit, and was easily able to develop new ideas from those in this book.

In this fascinating and easy-to-follow book, anyone with sewing skills at just about any level can find a project that is as much fun to plan as it is to sew. There are useful gifts, and practical projects for personal use. A pleasure to read and a pleasure to use.

Great book for making those little gifts for friends and family. Simple to understand. Wonderful pictures and directions. Fabulous book for kids and teens that sew. Would purchase this book again!!

It has lots of quick gift ideas. I like all the items that have hidden pockets and places to put your idenification.

Many good ideals for creating your own travel accessories to organize your suitcase as well as great gifts.

This is a great book that has every kind of small to large bag you could possible need for anything, but especially for traveling. It includes things like a map holder with places for pens, pencil and/or paper and little bags to hold money, etc. that can be worn on your body for safety. Most of Mary's things can be adapted for other uses. Directions are very well written and there are patterns and resources in the back of the book.

I have used this book often to give me patterns/ideas for gifts and accessories for myself and others....I sew lots and this is one of my favorites!! Mary Mulari has several books....she likes to re-cycle....and so do I....great resource!!

I love this book! The ideas are absolutely wonderful. I have made several items and have used some of the techniques learned in this book for other projects. My daughter was about 6 and we made the seat belt covers for christmas. We are still using them 5 years later. I have checked this book out from the library so many times that I had to have my own copy! If you like to sew and need a quick gift idea or to get the inspiration going this is the book for you!!

I haven't made any of the projects from this book as I just received it. The instructions look complete and helpful. I primarily bought the book for inspiration and there is inspiration a plenty! Thank you Mary for sharing your wonderful ideas. I can hardly wait to make many of these projects for gifts (and for myself). Before ordering the book, I was a bit concerned about duplication of another of her books, _Accessories with Style_. There is some duplication (mainly techniques) but not projects. Actually, I can hardly wait to sit down with both books and combine projects. If you like projects that make great gifts, purchase a used copy of this book.
