Debbie has chosen her favourite spring designs from her much-loved Half Yard (TM) series, including five brand-new projects for you to sink your needles into.

Whether you're spring cleaning and tidying, working in the garden or entertaining, this book contains everything you need to do it in style! Choose from useful bags, boxes and storage solutions to give your inside space a new lease of life; create gorgeous bags for days out and table decorations for days in entertaining; and finally, make your outside space just as inviting as inside, with a peg bag for your laundry and a gardener's kneeling pad for all those spring jobs in the garden.

Reviews

Once again Debbie has brought out an amazing book to add to her brilliant Half Yard collection. There are 40 springtime sewing projects to get cracking on. Some are taken from her previous Half Yard books plus an extra five projects to get your sewing machine on full power.

This new book is packed full of ideas for every type of sewing fanatic, from small projects to more challenging ones but nothing too difficult to make. Debbie has a excellent way of explaining step-by-step instructions for even the newest convert to easily follow. I am looking forward to making the new additions from this book.

I thought I had every single one of Debbie's books but I then came across this one while I was browsing sewing books. I am so glad that I found it as there are so many good and practical projects to make. I also found that this particular book seems to be a lot bigger than some of the other ones in this collection, which is unbelievably good value for money.

This new book, just by its cover, implies that the inspiration inside is 'fresh' and is inviting you to make something new and different from what you normally would.

In the opening pages Debbie has given tips for complete beginners plus more pages of advice regarding every project in this book. The book is split into four sections so there is something for everyone from bag making to a garment protector to gardeners kneeling pad to name a few.

I'm more of a visual learner and am thrilled that not only are the instructions written very clearly but there are photographs to go with every stage of your make. Before you know it you will have made a list of what you would like to make to gift to friends and family as well as for yourself.

Happy sewing, I know I will be.
