Each chapter is based on one of the three featured patterns, a Square Yoke, a Round Yoke and Bottoms & Pockets. Within each chapter, the basic pattern is transformed with Kari’s unique fabric and trim techniques to create an all new look. Often paired with a matching “bottom”, projects are delightfully over-the-top.

This enchanting journey to the kingdom of Whimsy will leave you loopy for ribbons and trims and have you seeing the beauty of circles through Kari’s eyes. In-depth step-by-step instructions plus Kari’s tips & hints make you feel as if she is whispering encouragement as you sew!
