Discover 18 contemporary, unisex sewing projects made from heavy duty fabrics that are stylish, practical and designed to last a lifetime.

Every project in this stunning book features heavy duty fabrics, including canvas, waxed cotton, leather and upholstery-weight: fabrics that are functional but elegant, age gracefully, acquire character in the process, and can be used and loved for a lifetime. Contained within are all the techniques needed, explained using clear, simple steps - including advice on choosing the right stitches, needles and threads for your heavyweight fabrics - along with simple, easy-to-use patterns.

Choose from a range of practical bags and strong storage, including rucksacks, shopper bags and bicycle bags, as well as a tool belt, tablet case and sturdy baskets for your home: sustainable and robust items for you to use over and over again.
