This review is from: 101 Ideas for Embroidery on Paper (Paperback)
This book has alot of ideas, but overall I was very disappointed with it. Some of the instructions were very vague, and alot of the "ideas" did not include a pattern - instead you had to have one of Erica's templates to complete the project. I have been doing paper embroidery for a long time and I have several of her books... and she is good, but IN MY OPINION this is not one of her best!

Somewhat disappointed,
By Crafty Anne "Anne" (Queensland, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 101 Ideas for Embroidery on Paper (Paperback)
This book provides a variety of paper embroidery projects for cards for different occassions. For about a quarter of the 101 projects shown no template is provided and instead the materials list includes a stencil sold by the author. I purchased this book so that I could make the cards shown - not to spend further money lining the pockets of the author by buying stencils. So I'm somewhat disappointed.

101 Ideas for Embriodery on Paper,
This review is from: 101 Ideas for Embroidery on Paper (Paperback)
Was not the type of Book I thought it was. Was disappointed in it because you have to order extra patterns that are not included in book. Most books like that have the patterns in it. I will not order them.
