What a delightful way to use so many ribbons that I inherited from my mothers boxes of sewing projects. I never knew that there was such an art.
Ribbons make the most beautiful accents to many things. I've used them as package decorations, corsages, and woven into a piece of fabric. Winning this book would expand my use of ribbon by quite a bit.
I have a new Avatar!!!! Would love this book!!!
If I won this book, it would be given to my sewing buddy as a gift as she is an avid crazy quilter ... but then, once I see it, well ......
This would be GREAT!!! I've started doing more crafts with my grandkids. It would give more for my granddaughter and I to do.
If I win this book, I plan to give it to my sewing sister who is an avid crazy quilter. But then, once I see the book, maybe .....
I love ribbons and have saved a box full of them over the years. I would love to have this book to give some inspiration to use them in creative ways.
Would love to win this book. Wonder if the ribbon vest from many, many years ago is in it? This picture is my sewing room! Yes, piles of mending and projects to complete! This is the year I shall conquer the piles!!
The roses so look so real and no thorns. It would be fun to make them since they don't grow well in my climate. They'd be perfect for a small gifts.
I just would love to win this book!
Sure would love to win one of these books too. The book looks like it would be so useful to get to use up some of the ribbons and get to buy some more. Nothing like a fabricaholic, we collect anything dealing with THREADS!
Linda. Lakeland, Fl.

This book looks wonderful. My daugther and I could have so much fun with it.
I love working with ribbon, mostly in our floral business. But I keep a stash at home too!

This would be great as I bought out a crafts store ribbon and button supply some time ago.
It made me think of the Doris Day song, "Buttons and Bows"
This looks like a great book, I would love, love, love to win it. I could incorporate the ribbons into my embroidery.
I've always loved ribbon but I've never known how to incorporate it into my projects.
What a timely giveaway ! I have just started really getting into crafting with ribbon, which to me, is stepping up to another level above crewel embroidery. All the textures and designs are endless and mind-boggling ! I LOVE the website as a newcomer and look forward to lots of ideas here. Happy Holidays and a Blessed 2010. Pittsburgh has had a white (but safe) Christmas. Prayers for all you folks in the Mid-West !

I love to work with silk ribbon! It is great to incorporate into my needleturn applique projects. Ribbon adds wonderful dimension to a project. Would love to own it!
I have lots of ribbon from my Mother's sewing room which I now have. This book looks like it would help me to use some of it.
700 color photos! I am impressed. This would be a treasured addition to my sewing library. And I agree that this contest is a great way to get members to update their avatar! Thanks Threads!
new to threads! would love the ribbons book. Feel totally clueless when it comes to crafting ribbon designs.
I love, love, Love embellishment techniques. I've been a fashion designer, sewist who created luscious things in all sizes, a costumer and the kid who introduced her family to the joy of the gusset. All things considered, the gusset speech was memorable if only for the looks on mother-sister's faces when I demonstrated how to adjust rise without questionable language, tears or promises to diet.
Threads feeds my fevered addiction to fabric construction. It's a big job, but Threads makes it easy.
I love using fabric ribbon in my sewing and quilting projects. This book could give me lots of new ideas.
I would love to win this book! I have ribbon but no idea what to do with it all. This book would help me. I would like to try ribbon embroidery and will go out and buy a pattern and ribbon, right away. I think making ribbon flower pins would be nice gifts to give. Pick me, pick me.
I love the look of ribbon in my sewing projects. This book would be sooo much help in using my stash of ribbons I have collected through the years.
The book would be useful in various crafts -- garments, quilting, home dec. Looks like a great resource to make use of the many ribbon pieces I have packed away. Would love to win it.
This book looks like fun, and the contest is fun.
Thanks, Threads and Taunton Press!
What a lovely book! Sewing with ribbons is such a wonderful addition to so many projects. I have a collection of ribbons old and new! This could be a wonderful way to start using them!
WOW!! Looks like I am not the only one interested in this wonderful book! I have been teaching my daughters how to sew and this would be a great addition to my library.
I have a large collection of ribbon and ribbon scraps. This book would help me use it up.
I'd love to have this book. The projects look fun and my ribbon box is full of treasures waiting to be used.
This book brings to mind a cotton dress made for me long ago by my mother with fabric from my grandmother. It was printed with buttons and ribbon bows, and I loved it! (The old song "Buttons and Bows" just came to mind.) You can imagine how proud I was to wear that dress to school (second grade) with a matching ribbon tied around the rubber band on my pony tail. Thank you for evoking such a lovely memory!!
there is nothing more feminine than ribbon on a dress or blouse
This looks like a book brimming with inspiration! Would be lovely to be lucky.....
I have so much ribbon to make things, but didn't know what to make! This book would inspire me to create so many useful items for gifts and gift wrap accessories. I would love to be able to learn more about uses for ribbon and teach my elderly friends how to create ribbon items as well.
Working with ribbons is a wonderful way to embellish a project. I'd like to see what other ways to do this.
My practice is to reconsider, reuse and recycle -- every piece of ribbon no matter the size. I may need it someday; don't let it go to waste!
Looks like a fun book and I'd love to win it.
I would love to win this book. I love ribbon and would love to know how to use it better.
What I could do with this book. I am always looking for something new to try and I have not done much with ribbon. My mother used to work with ribbon all the time. She made the most fund Christmas packages. It was more fun to see what she had created on the box than it was to see what was in it. There used to be a kind of ribbon that you could wet and it stuck to itself. She could do some really cool things with this ribbon. She had an instruction book that showed you how to layer it and twist it and make all sorts of pictures and shapes. I have not seen it in a long time and am not sure they even make it anymore. I am wondering if this ribbon book would have this in it. Good luck to all of you who have entered. Too bad only two people can win!
I hope you like my new avatar. The love of my life. The book looks really interesting. I'd love to own it. - Nimmy
I got to thumb through this book briefly at a show, it is a wonderful book!
I do some ribbon work for clients, but would really love to take my work to the next level!
Now, I'm using ribbons woven together to make a shoulder yoke for a client with very uneven shoulders. Fabric has not worked, because it BOTH lays badly, and looks clearly uneven. I'm hoping the woven ribbons will drape over her shoulder more smoothly, and also really hide the unevenness.
This looks like a great book. Would love to own it.
Hard to imagine 700 projects with ribbons!!! It would be a fun challenge!
I would love to win this book to further ribbon knowledge!
This looks like a truly inspirational book - I would love to win it and pass on the inspiration to my students in Swansea College, South Wales.
I've been collecting ribbons for years, just knowing I'd need them someday - help me put them to good use!!!!!!
My Grandmother taught me how to make ribbon flowers as a child. I had sort of forgotten about it until a few years ago. Then I swung right into making lots of things with ribbons. It became my passion.
Now, I need some new inspiration. This book, I believe, would do that for sure.
Ok, Let's take ribbon to the limit. Consider the Bruce Willis movie "The Fifth Element". Just for fun.
Well, this comment is a first for me. It looks like the book holds a lot of fun, new things to do.
Cheers to whom ever wins the book. I have loved working with ribbons for many years, especially Silk Bias ribbon, it makes the most beautiful flowers.
Thanks,
Janet

My new avatar is a photo of a tunic I made for my grand-daughter this Christmas. The beard for Santa is made from the tracing of her hand. I would love to win this book, I'm always looking for new things to try when it comes to sewing and crafting.
I would love to add this book to my collection. My 9 yr old Grandaughter just showed me how to make ribbon roses - she would love the inspiration in this book.
This book looks very interesting and creative. I would love to win it so I can make the embellishments and the other lovely craft outlined.
I love ribbon! Would love to win this book.
This looks like a fun book and yet another craft I can start :-)
This book looks fantastic! I would love to own it!
One can never have enough books to spark creativity! Thanks for giving me the chance to win this book.
I do agree with with you ForeverSewing! I could never have enough books too add to my crafting library, and this one seems like a nice addition. My husband thinks I go overboard. When I'm in the creative mood, I pore through my books and pick out a project. Thank you.
I would love to win this book and add it to my collection of sewing and crafting books!
Ribbon is one of my weaknesses and this book looks like it has so many fun things inside! I'd love to win it!
Always looking for inspiration
Love ribbon crafts and would love to have this book.
Please........Thank you!
This looks like a wonderful book! I would love a copy!
I would love to try Ribbon Crafts. I've been into fabric and fiber and trim for years.
Trying to expand my decorating skills and I hope ribbon would be easier on my ancient fingers.
This book would open a whole new world of crafting for me. I would love to win.
I wanted to try again since my new 'avatar' was not loaded with my last comment.
Oh how I need this book! There's tons of ribbons in this house and they're all sitting in boxes and boxes. They were so beautiful I just HAD to buy them! They were calling to me!!! If I only had a book to give me creative ideas using these ribbons...
lolololololol
Just the little bit I saw of the book is sparking ideas. Can't wait to get my hands on the whole book!
Such a beautiful book. This book would really come in handy preparing for my son's wedding.
This book would be a wonderful new world to me.
This sounds like a great book. I am a learn-by-seeing person, so with 700 photos in the book, I shouldn't have any trouble understanding the directions for the projects inside.
What a treat it would be to win the book! Love the chance to learn something new. The book looks like it could fill the bill.
I do ribbon embroidery and would love this book!
I used to love to make beaded flowers and decor, and flowers with ribbon and double sided crepe paper. This book looks very fresh and modern.
This looks like so much fun! If I don't win it, I know I will buy it.
I have some lovely hand dyed ribbon that I couldn't resist at the Houston Quilt show this past October...but what to do with it?? I could use this book! ;-0
I just got a new sewing machine from Santa and I think that book would give me some great ways to break it in. How fun and thanks for the opportunity. I love your magazine and enjoy trying many of the different patterns.
This looks just like my kind of book! I already have a box of ribbon just waiting to be used! And with a granddaughter ready to arrive in less than 2 months, I would have just the use for it!
Before its demise a year or two ago, I looked forward to my annual pilgrimage to Wright's factory outlet in Sturbridge, MA, where I collected something close to (my substantial) weight in ribbons! I've never minded my absurd stash, but this book looks like a natural way to help me trim it down--so now I'll *keep* a New Year's resolution! ;}
Looks like a great book - and I love learning new things!
My daughter loves ribbons! And I love sewing with them : )
I am in desperate need of some large ribbon ideas, I received a beautiful silk comforter from a friend after the dry cleaner ruined the areas where the comforter is secured through all layers I found some beautiful matching ribbon that will easily cover the area but the only patterns I have are for smaller ribbons my ribbon is about 1 1/2 inches in width. So far the only ideas I have been able to come up with are either rosettes, too small, or lengths of the ribbon sewn with the edges frayed, the comforter is burgundy and a greenish gold whereas the ribbon is greenish gold with burgundy as the weft.
Love ribbon, hope I win this book.
This would be a book I would love to add to my library!
Would love to add this to my library. I could learn to do a lot more with the ribbons I have, and be inspired.
This book would be put to immediate use as I seek to teach the younger women in my church crafts, quilting, and using their creative gifts. Making and giving crafts a person has made with their own hands is a joy. W
hen shopping, I cannot resist beautiful ribbons that are available.
This would be a great book in any library - particularly mine!
I am interested in learning about the different kinds of ribbon and how to work with it.
Wow! 161 comments, I guess anyone would love to have this book for their sewing library. I know I would, I just love ribbon roses. I wonder what other projects it has?

Great book. Thanks for giving this opportunity to get a copy.
Thank you so much for this opportunity. My avatar is a pic of a wedding cake my mother (in her 80's!) made for her grandson's wedding fall 2009. Yes, folks that's a waterfall in the cake!!! It was an absolutely beautiful cake! Agent0 out.
This book looks interesting. I haven't thought much about everything I could do with ribbon.
I love crafting and embellishing with ribbons. This book looks like it would be helpful.
Life can be so funny!
I'd just finished creating my first ever silk ribbon flower, without a pattern or real clue how to even start. Somehow it turned out pretty nicely so I will probably use it to make a headband or sweater embellishment for one of my girls. As soon as finished, I decided to check my Email and what do I find but this book! What a coincidence.I would LOVE to find out how a real pro goes about tackling these types of projects!!
I try to learn something new every day. This book sounds like it would take care of many days.
It looks like a wonderful book and would be a great resource on learning some new techniques.
My New Year's sewing resolution will be to finish all the projects I have cut out over the last year! They are all neatly packaged in zip-lock bags with thread and pattern pieces cut out and altered! Now if I can just get motivated to sew for myself!
I'd love to win this book too. I have recently gotten interested in Origami and other paper crafts. Ribbon craft would be a great way to make embellishments for clothing.
Good luck to me!
I would love this book It would give me new ideas for myself and something to teach a group of ladies i have that like to learn new things. I would like to share it with the children at the boys and girls club who like to learn to make something that they can give as a gift.
You know - this is really naughty - one of my New Year's resolutions is to finish what I've started, and then something like this comes up - a real Must Have! All these UFO's and then THIS BOOK - I Want it, I Need it, I Must Have it... Well, I think so, anyway, and it would look rather good on the table, and I would finish some UFO's before I get started on ribbon projects, just as soon as I've finished looking through the book - I promise...

Looks like a fun book.
Please enter me in your wonderful giveaway - Thanks!
I have sooo many reels (sp) of ribbon. This would be a wonderful book to have. Thanks!!!
Always interested in a good book on techniques.
I'd love to have this book to learn things to do with beautiful ribbons.
I enjoy all kinds of ribbons and would like to learn more ways to add them to projects.
Just when I think I have made everything possible with ribbon and by adding ribbon, there's a book with more. I'm sure it'll be in my library soon either by winning or buying. It looks fabulous with ideas.
Wow! Now this sounds like the best ribbon reference. Like all of these entrants, I'd love to win this book - for myself and for new ideas to teach my granddaughters.
Granddaughter in brand new avatar would love to be the recipient of things I could make from this book!!!
Looks like an interesting book! Thank you for entering me into the contest!
I luv ribbons! I luv Threads!
I luv ribbons! I luv Threads!
Flowers make everyone feel happier. And to learn how to make them with ribbon. Wow!!!
I'm always looking for new ways to create. Ribbon has always excited me with its possibilities.
I would love to have this book since I have the ribbon, just need to know what to do with it. I selected this avatar because this design goes back to my teenage years. I started an applique quilt all those years ago of this design and now forty years later almost have it finished!
This looks like a fabulous book! I'd love to know how to manipulate ribbon into beautiful flowers!!
I've stopped buying fabric because of space requirements but I always have room for one more book!
Sometimes I wonder how I ever create what I think about without detailed books. I've been trying to make silk flowers for ever and somehow the backs always come away something less than professional looking. I think this book could be the clincher. I've got rolls and rolls of the most beautiful hand-dyed bias silks that WILL look beautiful someday This could add to my repetoire!....

love ribbon crafts!!!
I love ribbons and would love to add this book to my collection.
"Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue," How much fun would a new craft be for 2010!
I am always looking for new ways to embellish clothing or other fabric creations. Ribbon seems like a easy way to create a new look and a new book is always welcomed
What a great way to take mundane and make the extraordinary!!!
There's no better way to start the new year than with inspirations for new projects (or even better yet, an add-on that will finish that UFO that just needs a few more details).
This book looks like just the inspiration I need for 2010!
Would give me additional options for creating the embellishments for tutus! Looks like a book with a lot to offer.
Would love this book. Always looking for ideas and fun things to do with my 4-H sewing group!
This looks like something my daughter would love to do. Just need to find a good sale on ribbon. :-)
I love to use ribbon on everything!!
I have always loved using ribbon- this would make a wonderful addition to my library
This book looks lovely! I would love, love, love to learn how to do ribbon embroidery and use it to embellish the bridesmaids dresses I am making for my daughter's wedding in 2010! Good luck to everyone, but, mostly to me! =)
Me too !
Thanks for the push to update my profile! Getting back in the sewing saddle after a long drought. Love ribbons.

Woo, here's my new avatar! And I love the ribbons idea. :)
ribbon crafting looks like a fun new project to get me thru the cold winter months. Also would be fun to add to gifts for my new grand daughter.
There is nothing more wonderfull than working with ribbon.
A new book for the New Year would be a fun way to start off 2010!!
Have wanted to work with ribbons for quite awhile. This would be a good way to start the new year!
Ribbons are my passion! This book would help me come up with new and interesting ways of using my stash! Good luck everyone!
I would like this book because I have never worked with ribbons! I received a book on felting jewelry as a gift(never done that before) and a book on ribbons will just keep my mind humming all next year! What a treat for a 56 year old chick who is looking for ways to learn new tricks!

Hope I win the book after the trouble I went to to get the new picture posted! It does look like a very useful and interesting book.
I just got a serger this summer. This book would be so helpful.
My favourite way to spend a rainy day is to sew - clothes for my grandchildren, toys, costumes, home decor - depending on whatever mood I'm in that day. I love to find new crafting ideas, and now my granddaughters are old enough to learn, we enjoy spending time crafting together.
This is for the lady who is making the ribbon yoke for the woman with uneven shoulders. Why not put an appropriate shoulder pan on the low shoulder to bring it up to the level of the other shoulder? Just a thought. I know this was listed a long time ago and I hope the person rereads the comments.
