Vintage Craft Workshop, by Cathy Callahan
Book Site: Vintage Craft Workshop
We've always been big fans of Cathy Callahan's take on crafting. She's deeply interested in not only the design sensibility of the 1960s and 1970s, but also in the culture of entrepreneurial women who sparked the renaissance in crafting during those decades.
Cathy's new book, Vintage Craft Workshop, is a celebration of both the crafts and the women who brought them to popularity. Sprinkled in among the 24 projects are fascinating profiles of such luminaries as Hazel Pearson, Enid Collins and Aleene Jackson. It's an engaging history lesson as well as a collection of beautiful things to make.
To give you a sneak preview, Chronicle Books let us publish a project from the book, designed by Nicole Vasbinder.
