items that added a final, distinctive touch to new garments and brought
color and freshness to the old. Today, ribbon art is enjoying a popular
revival, and crafts enthusiasts are rediscovering the pleasure and
satisfaction that comes from working with these colorful trimmings.
With this easy-to-follow guide, all levels of craftsworkers can master
the gentle art of pleating and folding ribbons to create unique gifts
or add charming accents to personal as well as household accessories.
Now you can change the entire character of an old hat or dress simply

with clever flourishes added to furnishings. Diagrams and instructions
for over 100 projects include step-by-step procedures for: · trimming
a hat in five different ways · decorating baby clothes and lingerie
· making a flat purse · creating a garland of flowers and other floral
arrangements · adding a luxurious touch to lamp shades and cushions
· embellishing shoes, baby carriages, blankets, coat hangers · and
much more. Requiring little or no sewing skill, ribbon art can be
