5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT Art Deco ideas... Excellent resource, March 30, 2001
By 
This review is from: Old-Fashioned Ribbon Art: Ideas and Designs for Accessories and Decorations (Paperback)
Wonderful and fun little book exploring past ideas and then you try incorporating them with today's fashions. I've tried a few and the directions are simple and easy to understand. My Great Grandmother used one of the examples to make several quilts making this little ditty even more special to me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting but a bit esoteric, September 18, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Old-Fashioned Ribbon Art: Ideas and Designs for Accessories and Decorations (Paperback)
Fun to look through but the ideas are hard to transplant into this day & age, though that is just what I was hoping to be able to do. The "Old Fashioned" part of the title is bang on. But at this price it is a good curiousity to collect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reminiscent of a bygone era, May 16, 2007
By 
This review is from: Old-Fashioned Ribbon Art: Ideas and Designs for Accessories and Decorations (Paperback)
This is a fantastic overview of all the ideas and designs of a bygone era.

Lots of information given in this book that has been forgotten in this modern world of ours.

If you are a true artisan in the world of ribbon embroidery this is a book for you.

If you are just starting out in ribbon embroidery this is a must to have in your bookcase.

It dates back to an era where we have not enough knowledge of

Enjoy... as I have, I have gained so much information from this book to enable me to project a wonderful type of old fashioned ribbon embroidery to which I was not aware of and without changing too much, otherwise it would spoil the whole concept of this book and its ideas.
