Review:
A multitude of creative approaches pervade the pages of No-Sew Special Effects. From needleless appliqué (the secret is fusible webbing) to fabric manipulation (using methods such as fringing, burning, scrunching, wrinkling, pleating, weaving, and coiling) to embellishments (with ribbons, trims, buttons, beads, sequins, and charms) to paint, ink, and dye treatments, there are ideas galore for a variety of interesting projects. Create wall hangings, quilts, banners, vests, pillows, and much more using the thorough instructions, diagrams, and full-size patterns. There are step-by-step directions for 18 projects, plus a lot of ideas for utilizing the effects on many other items.
