  Shows the sewing machine user how to experiment with textiles to produce a range of unusual soft furnishings, and contains a guide to all the materials and equipment needed. Employing various drawing and printing techniques - sketching, doodling, blot drawings, cut and torn paper, and potato/sponge and polystyrene printing - Miller demonstrates the creation of new designs. She then offers a selection of projects, from bow cushions to wall hangings and from mirror frames to appliqued, quilted or machine-stitched table linen. Each project starts with a basic drawing and proceeds with step-by-step instructions, featuring photographs of the finished item.
