Customer Rating: 

I found this visually fun to look at, even if you don't do the crafts. But the bags are very clever and look easy enough to do so I just might give it a try.

Customer Rating: 

It lives up to it's name, most of the projects in the book can be done without a sewing machine, and some of the most clever and cute purses are made fabric, duct tape, and a stapler. You can't get much simpler or lower sew than that. It's inspiring, and better than that? It's a great book to use with tweens and younger girls because there is a lot of room for personalizing and customizing in projects that are easily done, and quickly enough done not to bore.A lot of the projects are perfectly appropriate for gifts for grandmas and aunts. I do recommend for younger kids, you pick a project together and you read through the instructions and set everything up.

This book has pocketbooks and bags for all ages. There are some complaints that it's more for younger girls, but most of the bags can be adapted for an older person just by changing the material. I haven't bought a crafting type book that didn't have something I wouldn't use, but if most of it is stuff I like and will make then it is a good book and this one is the same way. There are some bags I won't make, but there are many I will and some I will alter to fit my taste.

This well illustrated, fun and instructive book enables crafters and sewers of ANY ability to create durable, attractive purses, totes, and accessories. There are detailed instructions, patterns and tips for variations to suit your needs.
Each project in the book requires little investment in time or money, and encourages creativity. They are labeled as to skill level (1-5). While I am a well intentioned, but not talented crafter, I found the higher skilled projects were wonderful inspiration and could be easily altered to fit my level of expertise.
I have been enjoying this book and ordered more to give to friends.

The directions are very easy for the newcomer to crafts or someone who has been at it a long time. Suppplies are economical with suggestions where to find all the supplies from the Goodwill to on-line links. Great projects for childrens groups, gifts or personal use. Thank you, I look forward to your next book.
