Customer Reviews

A huge disappointment

This book has illustrations, but no stencils. You must trace the illustrations on Mylar and then cut out the traced shapes to make your own stencil. The instructions for this lack clarity and are inadequate. The book has photos of beautiful stencils, but none of those stencils are actually in the book. The illustrations in the book are nothing like any of the photos. The illustrations themselves are wispy and extremely timid. They do not have much in common with Country Diary, that I can see anyway. The book is now in the donate pile. I was really disappointed with it.
