Jane Austen's Sewing Box

| | Comments (2)

A new book I recently heard of is "Jane Austen's Sewing Box".

Based on the novels of Jane Austen, this beautifully presented book is for craft enthusiasts and lovers of history and literature alike. A celebration of the Regency period, each of the 18 sewing, needlecraft, knitting, paper and decorative projects is accompanied by an extract from the relevant novel, historical notes, full colour photographs and illustrated step by step instructions for authentic replication. Key points: quotes from Austen novels illustrate how a character wore or used an article that can be recreated by the reader; brings the style, colours and textiles of the Regency period alive, a elegant and creative era of art and crafts; an accessible range of activities that caters for a variety of craft types and skill levels.

Jane Austen and crafts? Sounds fantabulous!
