Sewing World 2015 №06

Traplet Publications. — 110 p.Our June issue is packed with lots of projects that characterise the relaxing spirit of summer. Take our empire line summer sundress – perfect for relaxing sunny days in the garden, a weekend at the beach or dining al fresco with friends. This month’s cover star – the fresh and floral shoulder bag – would be a great accessory for day trips and looks great with jeans and casual clothes. We have some lovely makes for your home too – the criss-cross table runner set is easy to make and a great introduction to quilting. The scratchin’ chicken bag recycler has fun with free-machine embroidery and appliqué and the bright sundial cushion will bring a ray of sunshine to your lounge. We have our usual mix of techniques tutorials to help you master and hone those sewing skills. This month Susan takes us through inserting zips into her specialist bag making series and Wendy’s Masterclass looks at decorative edgings to add those finishing touches to your projects.
