	Each of these books provides sewing projects for sprucing up the home. The two Krause publications are very similar and cover a wide range of projects, including window dressings, bed and table linens, cushions, and pillows. Cowan's book begins with detailed information about equipment, fabrics, sewing techniques (including serger instructions and left-handed and right-handed stitching), and projects for pet cushions and computer covers. However, Sew-It-Yourself Home Decor has the more clearly illustrated instructions to the projects, with simple and elaborate styles shown. Window Dressing gives clearly written and well-illustrated instructions for making simple styles of valances, curtains, and drapes. Sew-It-Yourself Home Decor is a good candidate for public libraries. Purchase the other two titles if there is a strong interest in sewing for the home. Copyright 2000 Cahners Business Information.
