Hot Projects for the Cool Months (and Vice Versa!)
Posted by Kathryn Patterson on Jan 14th 2021
Sew Home in the Kitchen by Abigail American Bennett features 18 insulated sewing projects you’ll love for your own home or as gifts for lucky friends and family. The secret ingredient to all these handy items is Insul-Fleece, a lining fabric that combines polyester fleece with metallic mylar to create a temperature barrier that keeps hot things hot and cold things cold. Imagine the possibilities…hot pads, bowl cozies, lunch and snack bags, mug rugs…Abi has designed something for every kitchen, every dining room, and every family on the go!
Beginning sewists will appreciate Abi’s conversational style and helpful tips. For example, “Cut out all your pieces first. Label them if you have to. I literally do this every time I make a quilt and it’s saved my biscuits more than once! Just make sure all pieces are accounted for and the correct size.” There are even family recipes provided for you to enjoy as you use your new custom kitchen items.
If you’re looking for useful, pretty gift ideas or want to upgrade the look of your own home, check out the projects in this book. Chances are Abi has just the ideas you need to spark your own creativity!
