New! Tons of Crafting Books for Everyone!

We have tons of great new books in right now--too many to count! Here are just a few of what's new on the Fancy Tiger bookshelf.

For Sewers The Sewing Bible is the reference book that every sewer, beginner or expert, will be asking Santa for this year. It is amazing, covering everything you need to know about machine sewing, handstitching, finishing techniques and embellishments, plus it includes 20 cute and modern projects.

We love the new Absolutely A-Line, with it's many variations on a classic a-line dress for girls. Simple enough for beginner sewers, these dresses can sew up in a flash!

Now, if you want to make your very own grown-up lady dress, this is the perfect book--Little Black Dress by dressmaker extraordinaire Simon Henry will guide you as you tailor-fit the perfect little black (or red or any color you choose, really) dress.

Carry Me is full of tons of sweet bag patterns. We love bags and we kind of want to make them all. And this book is full of good ones.


For Knitters The new book Fearless Knitting is the perfect book for moving beyond simple scarves and hats and for building confidence to take on more complicated patterns and projects.

Knitted Gifts is full of perfect little projects for giving to just about anyone. (That is anyone special enough to receive something handknit!)


For Crocheters Okay, I admit I like math nerds. And craft nerds. A lot. Crocheting Adventures with Hyperbolic Planes is the perfect book for craft nerds who like math nerds, or math nerds who like craft nerds, or even better, craft nerds who are math nerds.

Amigurumi Book is full of a-absolutely-dorable crocheted toys. This is the real deal Japanese cuteness. And cute is where crochet really shines.
