A great addition to my design/ inspiration library

Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2012

Verified Purchase

Let's face facts- I am both a textile and sewing book/design book tramp. The more the better I say! The only problem is space- we're running out of it. Now I am forced to think long and hard about every item I bring into our tiny home. "Do I need it? Can I use it? Will it inspire me?" If I answer yes to at least two of the three listed questions, then I'm good to go and have a clear conscience about making the purchase. This book definitely answers the last two of the three questions listed. It will allow the reader to open their mind, look at textiles in a whole new light, and encourage you to not only use what you already have stored in the back of your supply closet but also possibly take an item and repurpose it in a way that contrasts its original life (A faux fur coat turned into a footstool slipcover? Who knew???) I enjoy turning the pages of Vintage Fabric Style and seeing where the ideas take me that day.

Great idea rooms

A beautiful book with great photos and ideas. There are instructions for a number of projects and an idea section in the back. Good for anyone who loves to look at photos of vintage items for inspiration.

Very little to offer and poor choices for expanded instructions.

Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2008

I wanted to like this book! But if you have craft experience, it's essentially useless. The few sets of instructions include: a drawstring bag, VERY simple apron, a duvet cover made from napkins, a baby quilt, a pillow cover (also patchwork) and handkerchief curtain...hm, more patchwork! You can get much better books on most of those very easily and have more than a double page spread of instructions or a single photo for inspiration. The drawstring bag does have a round bottom with piping but that's as complex as it gets.

There are 'hints' to keep separate scissors for paper and cloth, to wind embroidery floss on cardboard bobbins, and to store your vintage fabrics in a lovely antique cupboard!

So why did I pick this up and bring it home? Somehow I spotted the only 3 things of interest immediately and thought that was a fair representation of the contents. On page 64 there is a baby blue child's shirt cut down from an adult shirt. Handstiched with reverse seams (exposed raw edges). How current, how green! How lovely to find something vintage aimed at a boy child (possibly)! It's not even mentioned in the text, just the info in the photo caption. On page 81 a wool wrap for a french press coffee pot which matches the egg cozies on 78. No mention of fulling (making felt from previously woven wool vs felting which is done with unstructured fiber).

Published in 2003 but what was vintage then is still vintage. Just not a useful book. Thank goodness I can take this back.

But great for inspiration

Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2014

This isn't a How To book. But great for inspiration . Just looking at the lovely photis lowers my blood pressure.

Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2007

This book is somewhat interesting if you like looking at pictures, but don't expect too much inspiration if you are a seasoned sewer. And, if you take any decorating magazines you will have seen much better pictures than what is in this book. Definitely not a book you will want to keep for reference, because it is not detailed enough. A lot of outdoor ideas if you like to use fabrics in that way. Also ideas like: covers for hot water bottles, coffee pots, books, and clothes hangers. Make bags to hold laundry and toys. The rest of the book shows kitchens and bedrooms using towels and spreads with vintage, or vintage "look" fabrics.

I really liked this book for the photography and ideas--IO would have liked it more with more projects and how to directions! It is beautiful, though

パッチワークの布の合わせ方や部屋の雰囲気など、どれも私好みでした。手作り好きな私ですが、創造力に欠けるので、教科書にしたい本です。

表紙よりも中身がいいかも

Reviewed in Japan on February 9, 2005

中の写真を他で見て知っていたので探していました。
ヴィンテージファブリックのパッチワークしたものが幾つかあって
色合わせや使うシーンのイメージを膨らませるのにいいと思います。
手作りの参考になるかどうかは人次第かも。簡単な作り方が載っているアイテムも有りますが（ポーチとか）ハンドメイド参考書では有りません。
洋書にありがちな「表紙は良かったけど中はがっかり」というのは、私は無く、買って「良かった」と思いました。
