Not Impressed
by Customer AX80E6EFOPA7L at January 28th, 2008
I am actually an interior designer, and have a full design workroom. These pillows in this book are WAY over the top. There is not one that I would show any of my clients. As one reader put it....wouldn't want to lean against any of these pillows. I completely agree! These designs give off a very 80's feel to me.

Big Disappointment
by Customer A2GYXD2O5TIII6 at January 07th, 2008
I've ordered many books from Amazon and this book is the only one I have ever returned. The pillows were so unattractive that I can't imagine wanting to sew them. I'll stick with my old copy of "Sewing Beautiful Pillows."

Christopher Nejman Pillows
by Customer A1WIP3SO8UMUQ9 at September 21st, 2007
Christopher's Pillow book....WOW. He introduces and shows a whole new perspective to sewing, adventures in thread, colors and decorator pillows to the highest level. If there is a Vol 2 coming, I'm signing up now.
Highly recommended!
by Customer A31PYZOY3Z4RGZ at July 13th, 2007
This book far exceeded my expectations - and that happens almost never! The techniques are original with many illustrations and clear directions. There is a wealth of information/ideas/inspiration between the covers. Excellent and highly recommended.
