It’s our turn to star on the book tour featuring Minki Kim’s latest book, Zakka from the Heart: Sew 16 Charming Projects to Warm Any Home!
Like all of Minki’s work, the projects in Zakka from the Heart are sure to bring a smile to your face. Small bags, pouches and cases embellished with hand sewing and applique give them a unique, handmade quality. The best part is, they make wonderful gifts for any time of year!
How to Make the Macaron Pincushion
We had the delight of visiting with Minki Kim at the Fat Quarter Studio this summer. She showed Kimberly Jolly how to make a Macaron Pincushion. Just like the cookies, they’re bite-sized, and it’s always better to have – and make – more than one.

ZAKKA from the Heart Book
Minki Kim’s designs are modern, unique and a little whimsical. She’s brought her signature style to this book of 16 beautiful projects. Each project has full-color photos with easy-to-follow instructions. If you’re a beginner learning to sew or an experienced quilter looking to venture into making bags or trying other sewing techniques, this is a wonderful place to start.
We filmed more videos with Minki Kim which are slated for release in February. Subscribe to our YouTube channel to get updates.
