--Lesley Shepherd, About.com Miniatures Guide
"...An outstanding source of ideas and instructions
for the miniaturist. All levels are accommodated, from the intrigued
beginner to the expert craftsperson..." --Camille Minichino, author, The Miniatures Mysteries series

Wonderful Miniature Projects,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: In Miniature Style II: Over 40 How-To Projects (Paperback)
Miniature Style II has some truly wonderful miniature projects. I'm looking forward to making the adorable dress from the famous doll artist Lucie Winsky. Some other projects I am excited about are the Tudor furniture by Lori Rosemann, An Olde-World Finish by C. Verstraete, Fun Frugal Flowers by Lori Rosemann, and the Hand-crocheted Afghan by Mary Ann Bresnahan. The instructions are easy to understand and the color photos are nice and large. If you love making miniatures, you can't go wrong with this book.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: In Miniature Style II: Over 40 How-To Projects (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book with lots of pictures and easy to understand projects for people who work with miniatures. There are clearly defined chapters with many different types of scenes and ideas as well as step by step instructions to make many of the included miniature scenes. I got Chris' first book In Miniature Style, as an e-book and I am very glad I got this one in hard copy because it is great to have as a reference. Great job Chris!!!
