It's A Wrap

It's A Wrap by Brier, Susan

With permission from the author, Susan Breier, I taught this wonderful project to the refugee women at the Amani Ya Juu center in Nairobi, Kenya in eastern Africa in Nov. 07. (Susan graciously gave us her blessing and did not require any kind of payment for the use of her book or technique.) I also demonstrate this project in my booth at all the quilt shows where we vend. See our On The Road page for dates and locations.

About the Book

Wind, wrap, and sew fabric strips into fantastic containers! Start with a plate shape to learn the technique. Then experiment with four basic container styles to create round, oval, square, and other shapes.

• Create purses, baskets, and bowls in an endless variety of sizes, shapes, and colors
• Simply wrap fabric strips around cotton clothesline, coil into the desired shape, and secure with machine stitching
• Special sections on lids, handles, and embellishments offer unlimited options for your own variations
