Customer Reviews

Superb needlearts book!

The text of this book and the illustrations are superb. In this particular book there are the personal notes of the original owner who was meticulous! Her many inserts were neatly pasted onto separate papers that fit into the book invisibly. Her notes were neatly written and the pictures she collected enhanced the original text beautifully. I feel especially blessed to have received this "well treasured paperback." This very special book could not have arrived at a more appreciative home since I do this same note taking with my most treasured volumes.
