I was a little disappointed in this book. The cover is probably the best of the book. I'm glad I bought it used.

This review is from: Gifts for Baby: 30 Simple Crafting Projects to Welcome the New Arrival (Paperback)
I have really enjoyed this book--so many great projects. And lots of different techniques, from simple sewing to painting. Many projects start with a plain, purchased item and simply embellish it--so simple. Nice photographs, too, with good step-by-step instructions.
