5.0 out of 5 stars
A rare treasure
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.

OVER Priced and OVER Rated! DISAPPOINTING
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.

Marghab,
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.

An ABSOLUTE MUST for the Marghab Collector!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Perfection, never less: The Vera Way Marghab story
Very interesting! Gives the wonderful history of Marghab linens, the trials and tribulations that this remarkable and perfectionistic woman endured! LOTS of photographs! I especially like the fact that it lists the NAME OF EVERY SINGLE MARGHAB PATTERN! This is a TRUE TREASURE for a Marghab Collector!
