Sew Magical for Baby (Leisure Arts #4859) [Paperback]

Laura Lee Burch (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: March 1, 2010

A mother of three, designer Laura Lee Burch believes it is important for children to play with things of beauty that are well made and maybe a little humorous, because these things feed their imaginations and make up a significant part of their young world. Sew Magical for Baby is a delightful collection of easy-to-sew projects that Laura has designed to meet baby's basic needs. They do this by stimulating visual, audio, and tactile senses and promoting activity and learning possibilities. There are bibs, blankets, booties, a diaper bag with changing mat, and other basic accessories, plus soft toys, games, and books to help baby develop good sensory and motor skills. Laura also provides ideas on how to recycle fabrics from around the house to make projects that are cost-effective and/or vintage inspired. There are also instructions for how to put different colors and designs together and how to use some of the projects in more ways than one. Best of all, this book is full of kid-tested, mom-approved fun projects.
