Cons
  • Outlet needed

Nice application book

Probably the best book on crafts I have ever seen. It gives you lots of beautiful examples, lots of ideas, and lots of templates, and then invites you to do things your way, although you can copy their design if you like. I love all the information and all the great projects for inspiration.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

Then I'll go on to Society Two and Guterville - maybe I'll teach them both. Oh, oh, and her pillows! There is no need to stop there. Although some of her designs are…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Not sure

Also, I was hoping for more tips on how to combine wool and cotton - when and where it would make sense to use some kind…

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Great Price
