Reviews
Many home sewers and fabric crafters have a stash of remnants and colorful old clothing but really don't have any plans for what to do with them. Bawden (The Cushion Book, Abbeville, 1995) and Reeves have the answer. Castoffs are traditionally used in rag rugs, and Bawden has instructions for hooked, braided, and woven rugs, as well as a British variation of reverse hooking called "prodded." In addition to general instructions and several projects, her book has a gallery of works by other designers. Reeves ventures into rag chair seats, greeting cards, wreaths, and jewelry, as well as the usual rugs. Her use of cut-up knit sweaters is unusual and effective. All her projects have step-by-step instructions and lists of materials. Both books are colorful and very practical.
