Lovely ideas, but a minor complication-
The fabrics and patterns in this book are lovely. Photographic representation of all the projects are clear and wonderfully presented. The instructions seem clear (except I did find an important step for one of the handbags was omitted).I give it 4 stars instead of 5 mainly because it contains templates that have to be enlarged on a copier instead of full-size patterns. It appears that is typical with sewing books, but it is an inconvenience and requires a trip to a copy store (plus the cost) since they need to be enlarged to such a degree, you cannot do it on a regular copier without great difficulty.Fortunately there are only a few projects in this book that have templates - most of the crafts are going to be custom sized by you to fit your bed, chair, windows, etc, so templates would not be feasible.However, I do recommend this book. I am happy to have it and I do not regret purchasing it. Christina Strutt's designs are sweet and warm and this book is a welcome addition to my collection.

Great gift for the person who loves to sew and loves Shabby Chic!!
I love this book! The projects are beautiful!! It is as the title says Romantic, Cottage style, and I would say very Shabby Chic...this is perfect for me as I love all three!! I also love to sew (or try to sew) and the projects are very well laid out and could be used by a beginner or a pro...I can't wait to get started....would make a great gift for someone who sews their own décor and loves all things Romantic!!!

Full of charming sewing projects even for a beginner, like me. You'll be inspired to buy fabric and get started on many of these easy projects for home and personal use. I love craft books that are accessible for all skill levels.

Nice idea book
I found the book full of great ideas - but felt it was like so many other books. I didn't find many new ideas.

shabby chic
when you see this cover you say i want that style in my own home and then reality in man form says you are not having that as all he can see if rough wood, worn corners and maybe a bit too girly. So these sort of books are my dose of comfort and some ideas do creep in the home. use the ideas if you can and enjoy browsing the book on a cold day by the fire.

Really looked forward to this one arriving only to find it is exactly the same as another one I already have.Different title and cover but inside identical as Home-Vintage. Now I have two copies!

Nicht wirklich revolutionär...
Ich besitze schon mehrere Tilda-Bücher und wer Tone Finnangers Kreationen und Ideen kennt, weiß, dass sie sehr leicht nachzunähen und dann doch so süß und originell sind!Ich dachte, dieses Buch wäre eine nette Ergänzung für meine Sammlung, da habe ich mich wohl vom Buchcover verführen lassen, dass aber auch dermaßen in die gleiche Style-Richtung geht, dass es mir jetzt im Nachhinein richtig auffällt!Absicht???Schließlich erfreuen sich die Tilda-Bücher größter Beliebtheit...Vielleicht möchte da jemand auf einer Welle mitschwimmen...Naja, nun zum Inhalt, sprich, zu den Nähprojekten. Die sind meiner Meinung nach alles andere als ausgefallen: einfache Taschen,Kissenhüllen, Bettüberwürfe,Schachteln,Vorhänge,...gääähhn...! Dieses Buch ist nichts für jemanden, der auf Nähanleitungen für kleine originelle Accesoires hofft.Und der vorgestellte Dekohase erinnert auch ganz zufällig an den bekannten Tilda-Hasen. Zwei, drei Projekte scheinen ganz nett zu sein, meine Vorgängerin erwähnte sie ja schon.Positiv zu erwähnen bleibt der Anhang, hier gibt's ausführliche,bebilderte Nähanleitungen zu jedem Nähvorhaben. Hier sei erwähnt, dass dieser "Nähkurs" beinahe die Hälfte der 144 Seiten einnimmt. Meiner Meinung nach hätte dieser ruhig etwas schlanker zugunsten mehr vorgestellter Projekte ausfallen können.Alles in allem für mich ein mit knapp 17€ Kosten nicht unbedingt empfehlenswerter Kauf.Da gibt es bessere Bücher...Dieses ist allenfalls Mittelmaß, daher gibt's von mir knappe drei Sterne.
