Cath Kidston's in Print: Brilliant Ideas for Using Vintage Fabrics in Your Home

I just adore the pretty pictures and inspiring ideas in this book. If you love Cath Kidstons fabrics, you will love this book. Make yourself a cuppa, grab a plate of cookies and relax with this visually beautiful book.

I just love to flip through this book before going to bed. The beautiful pictures relax me, or, give me so many ideas that I can't fall asleep! There are definitely projects that I will try, and some that I won't. That being said, it is worth the price for the photos alone.

This was my first experience with Cath Kidston and I give her a "thumbs up". This book is a keeper with beautiful illustrations of fabrics and with inspirational projects, most of which anyone can do. It is well written with interesting inserts. Although I'm not "into" the bright, colorful fabrics from the 60's, I loved the faded and pastel ones shown from other eras. As they say: "Take what you need and leave the rest". Besides, in my minds eye I could see those same things in pastel.

...this book is for you. There are some great ideas about different ways to use all those wonderful vintage fabric scraps, tablecloths, and curtain panels you just couldn't live without but now need a home. Just the idea of scanning the fabrics (ingenious!) is worth the price alone!

I love old fabrics and now there's this book to give me ideas for my stash of 1930s tea towels, old lace and 1940's bridge cloths. Think beyond the original use for vintage fabric. Turn dinner napkins into throw pillows. Lace curtains can be table runners. Turn tea towels into napkins. The photos are inspiring and the book also contains lots of tips for where to shop, sewing tips and techniques and project instructions.
