Book excerpt: Kokoro no Te, translated into English as "handmade from the heart," is the philosophy behind this collection of small, high-fashion craft projects that have a distinctive Japanese flair. Featuring purses, pins, sewing accoutrements, and the author's own temari balls, the 30 original hand-sewn designs combine surprisingly simple techniques with exquisite colors and fabrics, allowing sewers to create lavish objets d'art, with delicate beading and embroidery, easily and inexpensively. A pattern for a doll-sized kimono is included. The color photographs and line drawings show multiple points of view for each project and show precisely how each artful, stylish, and charming piece comes together.--From publisher description.
