North Light Books, 2005

Don't own it; saw it in the store; here's what I remember
I'm giving it four stars because it had information in it that I wanted and projects that I thought were cute. There were a lot of projects that used little frames, which is what I am interested in. She tells you in each project which supplier sells the frame and the suppliers are listed in the back along with page numbers for their products used--very handy. She used the same suppliers for ...

Cheesy!
I thought the embellishments in this book were so cheesy! I'm not going to use hot glue for attaching things to my jeans! I thought the best embellishments were in the preview of the book. They were so basic and a bit ridiculous. Save your money.

Great for developing ideas for your own designs!
Maybe I am a different sort of artist, I purchase these types of books to aid me when I develop ideas for my own designs. Rarely do I copy what I see in books or magazines - and this goes for all my work from jewelry, purses, clothing, artwork in various types of media (paint, pastel, ink, fabric, collage, metal, fiber, etc.). Therefore, this book is great for doing exactly that, but I do ...

This little compendium kicks crazy quilting up a notch!
Any book that has "quilt" and "embellishment" in it, now THAT'S a book I would take a second look at. And buy!! I love the idea of crazy quilting with its fancy stitchery, but I also like the concepts of layering and 3D. This book definitely kicks crazy quilting up a notch, and really gets my imagination zinging. There are 33 "chapters" here. I use the quotes because some are only a page ...

My Favorite Crochet Flower Book
I ordered three crochet flower books, this is the one I use the most. The instructions are easy to follow and if you do get confused just look at the clear colored pictures. I made assorted colored flowers to sew onto the front of a T-Shirt. These flowers and leaves were fun to make. The book is just what I was looking for.

Great for beginner or good refresher
I am a beginner in sewing so I found this book extremely helpful. It has a lot of nice color pictures and diagrams that show how to make different kinds of stitches, like french knots and silk ribbon roses. It also shows how to use a sewing machine to make the same stitches, if you do not sew by hand. I think that the more experienced sewing person may not find much that they haven't seen ...
