Staff Pick

Crafty folks, prepare to swoon: Natalie Chanin is back with what might be the most anticipated DIY book this year, the follow-up to her heavily evangelized Alabama Stitch Book. This time, she applies her deep-South homespun haute to 20 new projects, all made from organic or recycled materials.

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In Alabama Studio Style, Natalie Chanin, founder and creative director of the acclaimed fashion and lifestyle company Alabama Chanin, takes readers on a compelling journey of creativity, technique, and inspiration. Picking up where the celebrated Alabama Stitch Book left off, Alabama Studio Style is a craft and lifestyle book all in one.

Here Chanin shares many more of her stitching, stenciling, and beading methods and applies them to twenty extraordinary clothing and home decor projects, each made with organic or recycled materials and designed with haute homespun flair. Along with the company's celebrated camisole and tank dresses, the featured projects include skirts, scarves, pillows, woven chair seats, and a stenciled scrap-wood table. Rounding out the book are recipes for three delicious party menus. Alabama Studio Style shows us that true style encompasses not only what we wear, how we decorate, and what we eat, but also how we care for our environment.
