"Making Fabulous Pincushions: 93 Designs For Spectacular & Unusual Projects"

by Jo Packham

I never thought I'd rave over a book about pincushions but this book was a delight. Victoriana lovers know that a house cannot be too overcrowded with lacy, satiny, fussy little objects. Pincushions certainly fill that bill.

Making Fabulous Pincushions

is aptly titled. The abundant, color photographs make your mind race with the possibilities. I never realized how many different types of pincushions abounded. While those included in this book were strongly ornamental, they could definitely be used if you so wish as functional pincushions. There is something for every level of crafting ability & instructions are clear. Definitely a must have for the libraries of crafters and Victoriana lovers.

~ * ~

More than just places to store sharp sewing objects, the pincushions detailed here also include sewing organizers, needle keepers, and the like. The general instructions up front are a bit disorganized, skipping from specific stitch directions (e.g., how to complete a bullion petal stitch) to lamination. In addition, many of the 93 projects demand more than stitchery skills; clay sculpturing and woodworking are also incorporated into some of the patterns. Minor flaws aside, Packham presents an absolute wealth of creative ways to "stick it" : an old shoe covered with antique laces and exquisite fabrics and stuffed; cushions formed in the shape of fruits and animals (e.g., rabbit, turtle); a birdhouse cage for gathering together sewing materials; and a rose wristband for traveling sewers. Truly decorative accessories that might prompt the coinage of a new phrase, "pretty as a pincushion

~ * ~

What do a high-heeled shoe, a ribbon bonnet, an ear of corn, an angel, and a beehive have in common? They're all uncommonly delightful pincushions! Now craftspeople can pull their needles from their old worn-out pincushions & make new ones. Shown in inspiring full-color photographs, 93 projects include antique & country-style creations to use, display, or to sell.

   

 ~ * ~
This book is a treasure of wonderful ideas for gift-making pincushions! The pictures are beautifully done, & instructions are clear. Also, the book itself would be a fine gift for a quilter, crafter on anyone's Christmas Shopping list!
