Summary: A Must Have for the Do-It-Yourself Decorator!
Review: As someone who returned to sewing after a 20 year absence, I found this book a wonderful way to "jump start" into projects. The instructions were clear and the illustrations made each project a "never fail" project. Also, there are dozens of tips and sewing term explanations throughout the book that were helpful as well. Coats & Clark even suggests the different fabrics you can use for each project which was a plus for me. I've completed all but one project from the book and get raves from people who see my handiwork. There are so many DIY projects and suggestions for decorating your home in this one book, it was well worth buying.

Summary: Best Sewing Book Ever
Review: Hello, this book is small, but wonderful. This is the best home decor sewing book I have found, the instructions are clear and helpful. There is a section on your sewing machine, seams, and everything I wanted to know was here. Finally after sewing classes and many other books, I finished my bedroom curtains, and I'm ready to do more. I can't believe I like to sew. Before it was a chore and made me cry in frustration, I wish I found this book a long time ago. Worth the money, I like the series but this book was the best.

Summary: Nice, but not what I was looking for
Review: I gave the book four stars even though I have decided to not keep it. For those wanting to try some easy beginning home decorating projects this book has several popular examples such as roman shades and decorator pillows. However, this book ended up not being what I was looking for. I was looking for something with a little more instruction for total beginners like myself and almost all the designs rely on a sewing machine, which I don't own.

Summary: Not what I thought it was
Review: I got this book thinking that it was going to be for a complete beginner (like me), but I really did not think that it was, seemed to be more directed toward someone with some sewing experience or skill.I wasted my money on this book.
