Okay. It's not a bad book. It's a lovely Japanese craft book called Tiny Patchworks2 - Make My Life Happy Every Day (what optimism!). I bought it last week and I've been lurking around the mail box every day - waiting. So it arrived. Pictures are wonderful, ideas a great but the truth is my sewing is not up to this - not yet, anyway. I'll have a go, but keep an eye open cos I might end up suggesting a swap-craftbook thingy. In my perfect world, the title would be HAPPY JAPANESE CRAFT BOOK FOR PERSON WHO CAN'T SEW BUT WANTS TO MAKE REALLY CUTE THINGS AND BE HAPPY FOREVER.

I have this book, it's lovely and there's lots of great stuff to make and ideas.
Your lettuce pots are such a great idea...almost enough to inspire me to do a tad of gardening tomorrow (weather permitting) I agree on the halloween thing too...no one ever wants to join in here but it is such a great excuse to make costumes and treats..I say carve away!(Martha Stewart has some great Hallowwen ideas)
I just bought this book yesterday because you mentioned it!
