"Material World" is the first in a series of home sewing books geared toward do-it-yourself enthusiasts and crafters who have an interest in interior design. The new home sewer has changed considerably over the past decade with the increase and popularity of home makeover shows and the reduced cost of owning a sewing machine. Most readers view sewing the same way they look at knitting and crocheting - as a fun and relatively inexpensive way to create their own looks. "Material World" assumes working knowledge of a sewing machine with the basic construction techniques for the fun 50 projects. Each project shows the reader how to take inspiration from everyday items or the tear sheet from your favourite home decor magazine and bring a little piece of it into their homes.
Cat Wei is an architect, interior designer, television host, design consultant, and an inspiringly creative person, with a full resume of design-related jobs and projects. After receiving her BachelorÆs of Environmental Design degree from the University of Colorado at Boulder, Cat moved back to the northeast, and into New York City to earn her Master's of Architecture degree from Columbia University. While in graduate school, Cat worked for such high-profile firms as Agrest and Gandelsonas, and Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill. Upon graduation, Cat honed her interior design skills at several boutique design firms, including UT (a.k.a. Richardson Sakeki), the firm that is best known for the Bliss and Skinklinic spas. Cat kept attuned to the architecture world, by teaching architecture studio at the New York Institute of Technology. In January 2004, Cat joined the cast of "Trading Spaces Family" as a designer, and recently finished filming "SheÆs Moving In" for the WE Network. As co-host of "Material Girls" on the DIY Network, Cat showcases her craftiness as a member of the "seam team" by demonstrating to the homeowner and the viewers how to completely transform a home, using fabric. Cat lives in New York City with her husband, Joel, and her miniature dachshund, Duke.
