Stitch Camp by Nicole Blum and Catherine Newman

This is a fun and nature set picturesque themed book around the craft of sewing and creating your own fun projects based around the ideas presented in the book. Of which, there are a mix of ideas to create for both boys and girls to try.

There are basic tips included to help even very beginners get started and try and have a go too with clear and concise information set to simple, effective diagrams and clear shot photographs.

The projects are fun, with beanbag toys, useful ideas for everyday use such as, mason jar sewing kit storage and winter hand warmers, t-shirts, necklaces and bracelets as well as embroidered plaques and pillowcases which could be good as gifts too. There sure is something for everyone to try.

The book is set into sections on, Sewing, Embroidery, Knitting, Crochet and even Weaving!

I loved this book, as a crafter since I was little (age four I splattered our redecorated kitchen walls with paint... oops! Still sewing grew to be a passion till today still though!) I appreciate the projects and tips being greatly beneficial for kids and beginners. I will be making a rolling pin embroidery floss holder though, very useful as I have a tub of them all tangled which makes it very awkward to use! A great buy for crafty people!

Many thanks to the publishers for allowing me to review this book!
