Have you thought about selling them through the stores?
Hi Gail
The books are currently available through our Surry Hills and Melbourne stores only. They're selling fast but we're ordering more and they should arrive in the next few weeks.
Cheers – Lisa
I just can't decide which ones I want. I hope you have a lot of stock! Their designs are really simple to make. I wish I could buy them all.
how much do the books cost?
Yum! I bought one. It was hard to choose – at least two others were calling my name…
I haven't yet attempted to sew anything from them, I'm just enjoying looking through the book, admiring it sitting on my coffee table, impressing my friends with a Japanese book (ssssh, don't tell anyone I can't read it!).
Look forward to seeing more in Melbourne!
These books are fantastic & I have sewn quite a few different patterns from a few different books and they are all devine. A lot are best made up in soft floaty fabrics. Get to it girls, they are fun.
is it difficult to understand because its in japanese :S
+ how much are they about? i think i want to buy the 'stylish' , the one thats not for childrens dresses … DROOL!
Dear Ella,
The books are $39.95 (they have up to 25 patterns in them) from our Surry Hills, Chatswood and Melbourne store.
The patterns are very simple to make and they have very clear diagrams to show how they should be constructed.
Hi, I was wondering when you will be selling these on line? I am in NZ and desperate to get my hands on one (or several!). Thanks
Dear Anonymous,
We are awaiting a new shipment of these fabulous books, including new titles.
As soon as they arrive we will add them onto our online store. The first lot didn't make it , they sold too quickly!!!
Or you can email me at fabrics@tessuti.com.au and we can include you on the list of customers, to be notified when they arrive.
Thanks, will do!
