4.0 out of 5 stars Craft Projects Book, October 7, 2008

By	Tammy S. Eubank (Southern Indiana) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book has a lot of stuff to offer! It is a great teaching tool for those who want to learn these things on their own, and is a great resource for those who just need a "refresher" on some things. I would highly recommend it to everyone!!

1.0 out of 5 stars where is my book?, September 7, 2005

By	Mercedes Nierotka (Ballston Spa, New York USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book was to be delivered by the 30th of August. It is now the 7th of Sept, and still no book. One star is generous, and predicated on the hope the book is still to come.
