I LOVE this book. I like creating things from felt (all types) and the ornaments and gifts in this book can be made in regular felt or woolfelt. There is nothing in this book I didn't like. I plan on making the trees (on the cover), the various little felt birdies (really cute), some of the ornaments. Anything in here would make a nice little gift, too. The layout of the book is nice and the pictures make one drool! If you like felt crafting and have basic sewing and embroidery skills, you will like this book.

Usually I am disappointed with the craft books when I received them. There are usually useless items in them that I would not think of creating. These are really imaginative and ones that I can and will make for gifts and decorations for my home.

This is a great book, full of fun things to make for Christmas. Great for gifts or to keep yourself. Easy directions and just adorable felted items. Easy to understand directions. All templates at back of book, just need to be enlarged and your ready to go.
