The Fold Line Book Club: The Handmade Home - 21 Simple Sewing Projects For Your Home
Our Book Club is back for April with a book that turns the focus from garment sewing to creating lovely elements for the home. Each month, we will be bringing you an exciting new sewing or sewing-related book to enjoy.
This month, we selected a book that is packed with useful projects for making your home look beautiful, while making use of what you have to hand. The projects would also make for thoughtful gifts if you like giving handmade presents to your nearest and dearest.
If you like to flick through a book before you commit, Kate will take you on a virtual tour of what's inside in this video!
