Fabric By Fabric One Yard Wonders

December 15, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 47 Comments

If you are looking for a last minute gift idea for a crafty or sewing friend, you can’t go past Fabric by Fabric One Yard Wonders, the sequel to the highly popular One Yard Wonders, by Rebecca Yaker and Patricia Hoskins (published by Storey Publishing). This edition contains a fabulous collection of 101 sewing projects using a variety of fabric types, all requiring just one yard (approx 1 metre) of fabric. Perfect for the special fabric in your stash.

I am thrilled to have a project included in the book – Monogrammed Clothing Cover – which is the perfect way to protect a special outfit. I love the Tufted Tweets fabric that the authors sent me for the project.

    Wow, this sounds like a fantastic book. I noticed how many FULL size patterns it had in it….and they are very easy to read, not all “jumbled” up with the sizes like some. Plus, I mostly would like the information in each of the different fabric sections about the fabric, the chart would be great. WANT TO WIN ONE!!! (or if not tell me where I can buy it ….I live in Southern Tennessee, US)
    Here’s my email for my entry; My email is jodieg3@comcast.net. Thanks.

    My copy of One Yard Wonders (the first one) is so dog-eared and I’ve made so many fun things from it! I love this concept and I really need to branch out from plain old cotton fabric.
