chronicle books 12 easy ways to 26 wonderful bags

Have a look at my new hand bag sewing projects book with Chronicle! Twelve basic patterns along with many variations to customize your designs to achieve 26 unique looks! I started with very refined and styled shapes -ranging from chic clutches and delicate wristlets to pretty, modern hobo bags. The projects have a keen attention to detail & construction with easy-to-follow step-by-step directions. There's a comprehensive techniques section, lush and inspiring photography with plenty of details and a bound-in pocket filled with the patterns themselves. If you enjoy sewing up my bag patterns I think you'll find a great deal in this book to keep you busy!
