My husband and I went on a trip to England. One day going through the Cotswolds we both saw a beautiful red tassel hanging in one of the shops. Then 3 days before going back to the States, I thought this is a very hands on creative country, maybe there is a book for making tassels that I could take home. I checked with the Canterbury bookstore and YES there was a book available for the same price as the tassel we had seen in the Cotswolds. I purchased the book and read it on the plane home. It had the best explanations and I created a red tassel as soon as I got home. In the book are also discriptions and photos of the tools needed. I wrote a letter to Anna and she sent a list of supplies that could be ordered from her. She was so helpful by mail. I have since made tassels for wedding gifts, teachers of my children, birthdays and for home decor. It has given me great creative pleasure, and of all the tassel books that I have collected...."The Tassels Book", is still my all time favorite that I come back to if there is a question on how to do something. I have since discovered other United States sources for supplies and threads thanks to Anna Crutchley's detailed discriptions in her book.

I didn't have a particular interest in tassels until I happened to pick up this book. It contains pictures of a wide assortment of stunning tassels. I drooled. Then I noticed that it had directions for making them with lots of pictures to show you *exactly* how to do it. I haven't made any yet, but once I finish reading it, I plan to. This book is worth the $$ just for the pics and ideas.
