1.0 out of 5 stars OVER Priced and OVER Rated! DISAPPOINTING, December 19, 2003

This review is from: Perfection, never less: The Vera Way Marghab story

After paying $160+ for this book through an Amazon seller, I found out it can be purchased directly from the SDSU Marghab Museum for only $65.

This book is the story of Very Marghab. It is NOT all about Marghab linens as I had hoped. Not enough pictures of the patterns or linens.

1.0 out of 5 stars Marghab, November 14, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Perfection, never less: The Vera Way Marghab story

This book lists almost 300 Marghab linen patterns but only has a color picture of 32 of them. I thought I was getting a book that contained photos of all of them.

This review is from: Perfection, never less: The Vera Way Marghab story

Once you have seen a real piece of Marghab you will be overwhelmed by the perfection in its making. This book tells the story of Vera Way Marghab who built up the business producing the classic linens so desired today. No, it doesn't show all the different patterns, but it does give you the knowledge to truly appreciate fine needlework on beautiful linens.
