Customer Rating:      Summary: did not meet expectations Comment: I was expecting more fashionable designs to make for my dd. Maybe it's a matter of taste, but these designs seemed a bit outdated for me. I have been able to use a few by changing some of the lines to suit my taste.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Treasury of Smocking Designs Comment: This product arrived in a timely fashion and is everything that it was promised to be.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Good for beginners! Comment: I purchased this book to learn how to smock dresses for my daughter. The directions are both drawn out for you to see and then written out in easy to follow step by step instructions. The written directions are very good and go into detail as to what you are doing and explaining how stitches differ from each other. The patterns included are for beginners to advanced. The patterns are all in black and white print with writing as to what color to use when. (Some books are color coded with the color thread to use being the color that the line is printed in). If you are looking for decorative patterns this book has it. If you are looking for theme patterns (bunnies, holiday, letters) this does not have that.
