The Japanese bring art into their lives with exquisitely crafted everyday items. Zakka Sewing, the new book from Therese Laskey and Chika Mori, helps you do the same.Zakka means "household goods" in Japanese, and the term brings to mind simple yet beautiful hand-sewn items that are both attractive and useful. This book explores this culture and its traditions, presenting 25 one-of-a-kind patterns from Japan's best zakka creators. Projects range from a squirrel-shaped teapot cozy to simple felt flower coasters, and you can even learn to stitch up a pair of cozy slippers. The variety and quality of the projects will enchant and inspire you again and again.
