Review of a mere amateur

I have enjoyed sewing, but have not had time to do any of it for the last few years. Over the last 3, however, I have really gotten "in to" linens, crochet, and embroidery. I don't know what hit me! I have had a college class in sewing, good pointers from a few and have occasionally browsed a couple of books, so take this review with that knowledge. I have worked my way through half of the book, now, and have learned several pointers and have piqued my interest and desire to sew again even more. I think the book is very enjoyable, and the only reason that I didn't rate it higher, is that, I'm not sure if my judgement would be critical. There should be some rating scheme for the reviewers, also! I don't know how this compares to others, but I am actually _reading_ it -- through and through, not just skipping. Enjoy!
