Sewing never goes out of style, and today it is more popular than ever! Sew Retro offers twenty-five stylish, vintage-inspired sewing projects--beautiful bags, essential skirts, unique pillows, and more--that are a pleasure to sew, thanks to easy instructions, helpful diagrams, and a pocket of ten full-size patterns. This fun, inspirational book also uncovers sewing's colorful history, from the introduction of the sewing machine to the modern DIY movement, and features interviews with today's hottest fabric and pattern designers, including Amy Butler, Betz White, Barbara Brackman, Emma Brennan, Judie Rothermel, and Kathy Miller of Michael Miller Fabrics. Filled with gorgeous project photography and quirky vintage illustrations that bring the 1920s, 1940s, 1950s, and beyond to life, Sew Retro celebrates sewing yesterday and today.

This book claims to be a “stylish history of the sewing revolution” but there is way too much unsupported inflammatory rhetoric masquerading as history to make it a good read. Example “After all, if someone were to put a needle and thread in your hand and tell you that this is all you’re good for, you mostly likely feel stifled and resentful – especially if it wasn’t something you were inclined to enjoy.” P 13 Or this: “In this century, women redefined what “domestic” meant. They were done with the Cult of True Womanhood, and done with sitting demurely in the corner, embroidering pillows.” P 21.
The art is great and the projects so-so, but I am not going to waste my time reading this book. (
