Favorite parts of this book were the sweater clips, forget-me-not shrine, the four-project sweater, and the *entire* vinyl section. Many of these ideas involve repurposed or recycled materials, which is great for those of us tired of crafts that require Martha Stewart Living sized budgets. And the few sections that didn’t apply to me or weren’t my style (like the few pages for pets – little friends aren’t allowed in my apartment!) I could easily see using for gifts. Almost everything can be adapted for children.
Great diagrams, schematics, as well as crafty basics. This book is for crafters who like to experiment and have fun with their work while also making something they can be proud of and use.
I have a huge obsession with craft books. I have two walls full of them! By far, this is one of the best books that came out in 2005. Yes, it has extremely innovative and spirited projects, useful tips and such, but what makes it so appealing is that it has so much personality. If you are among the new wave of crafters who want to have fun with your projects, this is a must-have book! Congrats to PSC for such great work!!
I consider myself an enthusuastic but inexpert crafter. I like fast projects because I’m an instant gratification kinda gal. This book is exactly what I’ve been looking for.
I adore this book, and so do my crafty cohorts. With 75 ideas, there is something for everybody no matter how long they have been crafting. We’re planning a Craft-ernoon to make some of the projects, but we can’t decide which one, because they are all so cool.
There are also plenty of projects that I can use with the Guide group I work with, because so many of the projects use recycled items that are cheap and easy for anybody to get hold of.
My family have also enthused over which projects they like and “placed orderers” for birthday and Christmas. I just hope I can deliver in the same way the PDX Supercrafty have !
