Maya Donenfeld writes for sewers who want to work with materials that have already had a life. The book covers the background of each fabric, how to take apart older garments for reuse, practical sewing tips, and the environmental effects of the materials themselves.
Her 28 projects are aimed at the modern home and family. She also shows how to decorate used fabric with paint and ink, drawing on her experience of leading print workshops. Stencil templates and step-by-step instructions are included, along with encouragement to invent your own designs. Short stories, a favourite recipe and a nature activity are placed between the projects.
The book suits both new and experienced sewers, particularly those drawn to sustainable craft. Edition note: published by Wiley in 2012, ISBN-13 9781118222706.
