Easy and Beautiful embroidery projects,
By Mariota (California, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Embroidered Projects (Dolls House Do-It-Yourself) (Paperback)
This book is wonderful. It has fantastic color photos of the designs and easy step-by-step instructions. A novice would be able to follow the instructions but the projects do not look beginner. You will be very proud to have made these beautiful items to accent your dollhouse.
