Customer Reviews

Beautiful: simple and challenging

I have found that when I want a book with beauty, and style, I can count on Donna Kooler. This is a wonderful example with introductory pieces that are in excellent taste and beautifully executed. Donna Kooler uses color mixing, boldness and blending better, perhaps, than any other designer that I have seen. Her work is bright, beautiful and joyous. But, it is challenging and requires close attention. Is it worth it? Oh, definitely, yes, and what I really like is that evey finished piece is a future heirloom. Even a simple single motif makes a treasured gift. Something that anyone who owns it displays with pride.
