Dust off the sewing machine and sharpen the shears. Heather Ross wants to get America sewing again.
Ross is a lifelong sewing enthusiast who designs fabric, fashion projects, sewing patterns and stationery goods. Her new book, Weekend Sewing, is intended to inspire people to carve out time for sewing as a creative outlet, as she does.
She filled the book with instructions and patterns for clothing, accessories and home items that can be completed in a few days at most. They're also things that fit the relaxed feel of a weekend — items such as tote bags, sundresses and comfy pajama pants.
Weekend Sewing is published by Stewart, Tabori & Chang and sells for $27.50 in hardcover.
