I really enjoyed the spells and information she shared, and everything was explained clearly. I'm not particularly interested in most of the projects she includes patterns for, but I'll draft my own versions of some and take inspiration from some of her spellwork and techniques.

I'm only rating this book on the first 90 pages and a few of the patterns I read. I think this is a good introduction for people who like sewing to get into witchcraft or vice versa. But by no means do I think this is a good first witchcraft book. Once you have a few books and some basic knowledge under your belt, this would be good for showing different ways to work traditional spells or using colors/elements in your craftwork.

I plan to make three of the sewing projects from this book. The Spider Pincushion, the hooded cape, and the tea stained tarot cloth.

This does have lots of different bag/pouch patterns and some good beginner sewing projects.

Also the author's bio says she is pagan, but a fair amount of the info/projects in the book leaned more wiccan

A nifty, unique combination of sewing tutorials and incorporating intention and meaning into every step of the sewing process. I appreciated the author's personal touch throughout, the deliberate approach to making each project gender neutral, and the reminders throughout to both customize projects according to the reader's preferences and to research and respect other cultures before using their elements in projects.
