Marjie is an award-winning handicrafter who has written and reviewed crafts articles and books.I like this book so much I made 5 of the gifts on the first day I got it... awesome... I can't wait to make some of the great Christmas gifts. My teacher wants some of the ideas for art class too. My Nan always says the gifts she really likes the most are those I make myself. A book to enjoy and use over and over and over again. --
