This is a beautifully done book by tone Finnanger. I love her designs and wonderful sense of colors and patters she uses in her designs. I own some of her previous works and have enjoyed them all. She puts together easily understood instructions for her pattern designs and the beautiful photos of the completed works encourages me to make my own. I enjoyed this book very much. |
