520 _aThis is a fabulous collection of step-by-step designs for personalizing ready-made clothes with colourful, individual embellishments using simple embroidery, beading and applique, as well as some instant, no-sew ideas. The five chapters focus on different types of embellishments, including beads and sequins, ribbon and lace, patches and scraps, flowers and leaves, and wool. Each chapter has six step-by-step projects for embellishing clothing, followed by a double-page spread of ideas for accessories, such as belts, scarves, bags, hats and shoes. There are projects for making a corsage to pin to a jacket, adding ribbon to a camisole, ribbons around the edge of a cardigan, beaded motifs added to a sweater, or diamante studs added to jeans. Using basic T-shirts, jeans, blouses, skirts and sweaters that are readily-available and inexpensive to buy, these ideas for embellishments will make individual, must-have items for your wardrobe to help you stand out from the crowd.
