5.0 out of 5 stars She is the PN guru!, January 15, 2007

This is the kind of craft that amazes people - they have no idea how easy it is to do because it looks so great. This is my second purchase of her books and if you join her yahoo group you find she comments regularly with even more tips. The tools used are reasonable in price and I don't think this craft is going to go away this time - no more 60's drawings - this embroidery goes fast and the themes are timeless. If you want inspiration check out what others are doing on the site.

This is a great book, with designs from many different people. The instructions and color lists are very good, and the projects all look fun to make--haven't had time to make them all yet!
