A collection of designs for traditional and novel celebrations

This is a collection of designs celebrating various occasions during the year, some of them traditional, and others probably unique to this book. May, for example, includes a flower of the month, Mother's Day and World Trade Week. Most of the designs are a variety of pictures, wall-hangings, linens, plastic canvas figurines, etc. The Pedlar Bear for World Trade Week is a costume for a teddy-bear. The pieces are created by a number of designers. It is somewhat hard to review the designs, since this is so much a matter of taste. They tend to be very detailed and traditional in style, but varied within those parameters. Personally, one of my favorites is the all-over design on the cover!
