Johansen's Fast, Fun & Easy Fabric Bowls introduced readers to the technique of creating graceful bowls made of two layers of fabric fused around stiff interfacing and shaped on the sewing machine. Now she turns her attention to boxes, using the same techniques to create eight different basic box designs, including the familiar Chinese food "to-go" boxes, square boxes, hexagon boxes, treasure chests, recipe boxes, etc. Once these box construction techniques are mastered, using beautiful theme or hand-dyed fabrics, the sewer will find that the sky is the limit in creating one-of-a-kind home decor and gift boxes. Recommend for large public library sewing collections. Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
