I’m saving up my cents and dollars in a jar to buy these two books:

Simple Sewing by Lotta Jansdotter

(pic from decor8)

and

Bend-the-Rules Sewing by Amy Karol

(pic from Amy Karol)

I seem to be addicted to new sewing books, and it’s a pity I can’t get Crafter’s Companion over here. It might be a good thing though, otherwise I would have to sleep on the floor or hang like a bat from the ceiling with my books strewn all over the place. Next, I’ll have to think of a way to make a makeshift bed using books as the support frame.

Does anyone want to trade their copy of the Crafter’s Companion for vintage craft books? Anyone?
