I looked up Zakka on Wikipedia and found that it is a fashion boom, an explosion I didn't hear or at least the term. Zakka is defined as "everything and anything that improves your home, life and appearance."
Patchwork Please begins like most how-to-books with the basics, followed by techniques and tips, then moves to projects with instructions. The projects are vary is size and difficultly. Pictured below are two of my favorites.
