Kundenrezensionen

Schönes Buch , auch für Tilda-Fans
Dieses Buch enthält eine Reihe sehr netter Nähideen, ein bisschen setzt sich auch der "typical English style" durch, insgesamt aber auch Dinge, die den klassischen Tilda-Typ begeistern können...schöne Vorschläge für den Wohnbereich ebenso wie fürs Kinderzimmer, alles ein bisschen countrymäßig angehaucht. Die englischen Anleitungen sind gut verständlich, wer Näherfashrung mitbringt, wird keine Probleme haben. Für den Preis ein prima Buch.
