Win a copy of craft book: Sew LA Tea DoWhat do Sarah Jessica Parker and your Nana have in common, besides moles in unusual places? They're both craft nerds. Crochet, nuno felting, knitting, sewing etc - it's a growing pandemic. Basically you ain't living unless you're knitting nancy-ing all the way home. But some of us need help expanding our craft repertoire beyond decoupage cherubs on cardboard boxes. This is where Pip Lincolne's second book Sew La Tea Do offers a helping hand.
Forget the Noni Hazlehursts and Martha Stewarts of the scene, Pip renders a lovelier, chicer portrait of handmade goods. The book lists 25 sewing projects that will put your year 7 textiles sparkle denim backpack to shame.
(What? Only me?) Divided into three parts - for children, for adults and for the home - it will show you how to make your own clothes, picnic rugs and origami wallets! Pip gives easy to digest instructional guides accompanied by *real* cutout patterns, step by step diagrams and sewing tips.
