Transform pieces of fabric, lace, ribbons, and other trimmings into scented gifts and luxurious personal indulgences. Filled with full-color photographs, recipes for potpourri, and detailed practical instructions, this delightful collection of thirty projects will inspire anyone to craft beautiful sachets that appeal to the senses of sight and smell. Re-create the magic of the past with Victorian treasures such as a wedding day keepsake, and dream pillows. For sachets with a more contemporary flair, make a whimsical tuxedo package, a delicate organza origami box, or a trio of linen pillows. Since they are small, sachets are perfect projects to use for experimenting with different sewing techniques. See how to incorporate pintucking, hemstitching, bobbinwork, couching, ruffling, piping, and serger-edge finishes. With the renewed interest in handicrafts and the magic of nature, now is the perfect time to enjoy sewing these scented treasures.
