1.0 out of 5 stars
A disappointment,
This review is from: Soft Furnishings For Dollhouses: 215 Enchanting NoSew Designs & Patterns (Paperback)
I know it's hard to write a book, so I feel badly about dissing this one. However, it is not good. The projects shown are, almost without exception, out of scale and "clunky" looking, rather like a very young Brownie troop's efforts. I was very unhappy when I received it and found nothing in it of value. I suspect I am not alone in my estimation as copies of this book began appearing on Thrift Shop shelves soon after its release. Sorry guys, it's just no good.

For Beginners to the dollhouse hobby,
By M.E. Wilson (Nashville, TN USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Soft Furnishings For Dollhouses: 215 Enchanting NoSew Designs & Patterns (Paperback)
The authors have created some delightful furnishings, and I would recommend the book to those who are only just starting out in the World of Dollhouses. If you're putting a play house together for children, this book is a good starting point. However, if you a serious miniaturist, and have a more discerning eye for scale, you should probably look elsewhere. I would more highly recommend Nick and Esther Forder's "Dollhouse Decor: Creating Soft Furnishings in 1/12 Scale".

Very disappointed on the contents of this book.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Soft Furnishings for Dollhouses: 215 Enchanting Nosew Designs & Patterns (Hardcover)
Yes, granted these are no sew projects, but I feel they are for the very beginner. The pictures are not clear and there is no detail to creating the objects in this book. It is basically cut a piece of material, wrap it around an object and glue. Many of you miniaturists have already gone far beyond this point. I appreciate the efforts of the authors but I personally feel this is a very beginner type craft book.
