Lost in the woods,
By Erika Woods (Mount Vernon, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Easy to Make Inlay Wood Projects--Intarsia: A Complete Manual with Patterns (Paperback)
As I became lost in the art of intarsia, this book was my map. Completely unknown to the craft, I purchased this book as a way to beat my summer bordom. As I opened each page, a swirl of thoughts came to me, and I immediately made plans to visit the local hardwood retailer to start my first project. But where to start? This book has the most wonderful design ideas, from beginner to advanced, even I was impressed with the works I had done. You can make each project over and over, because the wood you use is always different. I would recomend this book highly to anyone slightly interested in the art and history and creativity of intarsia.

Good, but misleading cover,
By crisw (Jamul, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Easy to Make Inlay Wood Projects--Intarsia: A Complete Manual with Patterns (Paperback)
I am just learning the art of intarsia, and this book had some helpful information. However, I was quite disappointed that none of the patterns in the book are for the pieces on the back cover (does and fawn, rearing horse, duck)- only the front cover patterns are included.

Good start for the Newbie,

If you are just starting in Intarsia, as am I, this is a good reference to get some knowledge of the art and how to get rolling - or sawing as the case may be. The step-by-step description of a first project gives one more information than some need, but it certainly gives insight to the detail and proceedure required. The patterns included in the book will get you started in fine fashion.
