It is a blessing that such books are still available - we use these iron-ons for painting and marker coloring which ultimately become squares in our ministry's beautiful blankets. Keep selling these kinds of books, we'll keep buying them! 8 of 10 people found the following review helpful: 3.0 out of 5 stars Not what I expected, July 9, 2006 By  Barbara A. Devault (Media, PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    Michler provides in her book exactly what the title announces so I shouldn't have expected more. There are many transfer patterns with the basic instructions. I was hoping for some suggestions for projects. If you are looking for lots of designs to transfer this is a good value for the money.
