Title
Zakka Sewing: 25 Japanese Projects For The Household (Stc Craft)
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The phrase Made in Japan once conjured images of assemblyline production, but now it connotes wellmade products that are unique and ingeniously designedsometimes elegant, sometimes cute, always charming. And none are more charming than the graceful, functional, sewn objects called zakka. In Japanese, zakka means household goods, referring specifically to handsewn items for domestic usetableware, kitchenware, containers of various kinds, even simple clothing. Therese Laskey and Chika Mori were enchanted by the many clever pieces they saw online but disappointed that directions and patterns were solely in Japanese. They knew they had to put together an authentic zakka book for Englishspeaking crafters. To do so, the authors enlisted the help of some of the best zakka makers in Japan to create 25 projects ranging from utterly simple (an appliqud pot holder, flowershaped coasters) to ambitious (a houseshaped camera cozy, an adorable pair of comfy padded slippers). Each project includes easytofollow instructions and howto illustrations. The lovely photos of finished pieces were taken by New Yorkbased Japanese photographer Yoko Inoue.
