Japanese Craft Book, Hawaiian Style
This Japanese craft book is about sewing with Hawaiian Fabrics.
ISBN4-529-04206-5
There are so many fun pics to share, that I will spread this out the next couple of days.
With the ton of fun projects in this book, what most captured my attention was the yo-yo curtains.
Fabric yo-yos seem to have experienced a resurgence of interest lately.
Amanda from Soule Mama embellished curtains.
So did Dacia Ray.
Check out this cute idea--brilliant in its simplicity:
Yo-yos on each curtain hook, and a decorative strand down the center.
I can envision this on shower curtain hooks also,
as well as attached to a cord with bells behind a door to signal its opening.
But, oh my, look at this wonderful thing. This time an entire curtain, made into a heart shape:
In case you need instructions, Craftapalooza provided a tutorial on Whip-Up.
What a great way to use up leftover fabric scraps, and to tie in colors in a room.

Wow. What cool and neat ideas. I will definatly be looking into that book, i love to be able to try new things creatively without shoting up the budget thanks for the update on those awesome projects.
SOOOOO pretty! Where can we find the book?
I purchased this book on ebay, and more copies are available. You can also check the references listed on Crafting Japanese (link is on my side bar). If you're lucky enough to have a Japanese bookstore in your town, they could order it for you.
Neat... (I need to see if there is a local Japanese Book store around here...)
