ARTICLE PREVIEW
from Threads August/September 2005 (#120)
Quick to Make Projects
Fashionable and fun to wear, these three creations take just a few hours -- or less -- to sew
by Gay Gerlack, Anna Mazur, and Judith Neukam

Instructions for making three stylish, fast-to-sew projects: turn a decorative place mat into an embellished purse; transform a length of stretch fabric into a boutique-inspired shrug; and sew a glamorous peasant blouse in an afternoon. No patterns are required -- just a couple of hours, easy-to-find materials, and your creativity.
