I am enjoying the new patterns in this book. It appears the technique is coming back in vogue. Instructions are clear.

When I received this book I guess I was expecting a little more than what I got.
The book is very small and really doesn't have enough content for the price I paid.
When I pay $12-$15 for a craft book I usually get a book that will provide me with enough projects to work on for several months and will grab my attention again when I pick it up a year or two down the road.

I guess this book just left me feeling flat and not very excited about doing the project that are in it.

However, on the other hand, the pictures are nice and bright.

Was disappointed in the size of the booklet. I expected a book. It is hardly bigger than a leaflet and very few pages maybe 30? I don't have it in front of me to check. The quality of the pages and the color of the pictures are very good. Lots of different patterns but they only come with the numbers for laying the strips in the correct order, they are not lettered for color placement as other patterns that I own. Overall for the price paid and number of pages, not a good bargin but it does have many patterns and for each pattern about 3 different examples are given. I am new to this craft so I am looking for another more comprehensive book. Any suggestions?

This is a very good book about Iris Folding. Thye use the European method of using folded strips of paper in their designs, but they can also be done the American way of using unfolded strips which makes the designed images much thinner and easier to mail. Style not withstanding, these are beautiful designs and not that hard. I highly recommend this book.
