Beautiful book but... December 29, 2008
plath (White Lake, MI United States)
Beautiful book and patterns, but I was disappointed that none of the patterns were for over 12 months. My daughter is only 8 months, but wears a 12-18 size, so she has already outgrown every clothing pattern in the book.

Great book - but here's a warning! October 22, 2008

This is a wonderful book - lots of great ideas, the pictures are beautiful, and the patterns are clear and easy to use. My warning - when I made the kimono pj's, I found that the pants pattern did not allow enough room for a diaper. I have substituted another pattern I had on hand for the bottoms, and just love it now. Everything else I've made up has been just great. I can't wait to make the cheeky monkey bag!!

Best Amy Butler Book, by far September 30, 2008
D. Castleberry (San Diego, CA)
This book is everything you hope...and more! Amy Butler is known for her beautiful fabric and fresh ideas but I have a stack of her books on my shelf that I have loved to look at, but have never been inspired to make something from immediately. This book is the complete opposite! Each project is one that you will really want to make and is full of patterns, not just ideas. The projects themselves are unique and are not basic items that you could figure out on your own. I made the soft book for a baby shower gift and it was a huge hit! The kimono pj's are next on my list. You will love this book!

Beautiful book September 30, 2008
Brooke Carter (Jenks, OK USA)
This little book will not disappoint. It is filled with beautiful pictures and patterns for any skill level - and, oh yes, inspiration! This book has truly taken my sewing and crafting to the next level. Once you make one of Amy's projects, you realize that you now have the tools and techniques to put the pattern aside and create something of your own. Wonderful, wonderful book.
