Summary:Jenny Ryan has created a collection of projects that anyone can complete in a jiffy. Simple sewing techniques and quick yet stylish projects combine in this book that teaches readers basic sewing skills while they create adorable yet useful items to keep for themselves or give as thoughtful presents. Use surface embellishment techniques including appliqué and embroidery to transform plain tees or old linens into pretty and unique signature items like a pillowcase purse or a skinny summer scarf, or create lovable critters or a set of crafty coasters from scrap fabric and felted sweaters. A focus on using vintage and repurposed thrift fabrics shows readers how they can whip up unique sewing projects that are also easy on the planet (and on your pocketbook).--From publisher description.
