Sew Fun: 20 Projects for the Whole Family

Sew Fun: 20 Projects for the Whole Family is a thoughtful approach to crafting with and for children. Discover a variety of ways to get children involved in fun sewing projects, whatever their age or ability. Several projects are for adults to make and for children to enjoy. Others incorporate a child's drawings as inspiration for an adult-made project or allow older children to try out easy sewing themselves. Simple quilt patterns also allow children to work together choosing or decorating fabric while an adult handles the actual sewing.

Deborah Fisher has developed a range of projects that will appeal to adults and children alike. Fun costumes, beautiful dolls, story-time blankets, and communal quilts are just some of the projects included here. Enjoy combining bright colors and contemporary fabrics while spending time with the family. Get tips for working with children and learn how to involve them in ways that are enjoyable and stress-free.
