"Author von Grabler-Crozier provides clear instructions for crafting deceptively simple bags so even beginners will be inserting pockets and zippers like a pro. The author of a craft blog, Pretty Things, she has assembled patterns for 20 bags made out of many pieces, which is perfect for using scraps or fat quarters, while also opening up infinite options for color and pattern mixing, even though she includes the specific fabrics she used for each bag so that crafters can, if they wish, follow her vibrant examples. In addition to a list of supplies and tools needed to create each bag and its accompanying embellishments, von Crozier- Grabler includes directions for inserting a zipper or tackling free-motion embroidery. All of her instructions are precise and specific, making the assembly of a multipocketed, zippered diaper bag with a removable strap totally doable. And there are also patterns for simpler bags. Other projects include a wristlet, several totes, purses, a backpack, and a weekender bag. Large, copyable patterns and templates are included, ensuring that this is a colorful addition to any craft collection". -- Booklist January 1 2018 issue
