There are projects to suit all levels of ability from an abstract picture frame for a beginner to try, and a leather book cover for a good intermediate, to a complex batik cushion cover for those with more advanced skills. Each project explores the varied approaches and styles of working with these two decorative crafts.With step-by-step photographic sequences to show how each project is created, this is an essential technical reference and inspirational sourcebook of ideas.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
