This latest effort by Barbara Elbe just shines!

The techniques this time are Vertical Brick Stitch and Square Stitch, with some Peyote Stitch straps. Beautifull written and ilustrated instructions, a short course in making twisted fringe, stick fringe, a Peyote strap and a Spiral Rope Strap, all of which are employed in the projects.

The projects are superb, once again. Many birds and animals are depicted, including a White Tailed Deer, California Quail, Cardinals, Crashing Surf, a Peacock and many more. Other scenes include a Santa, a Colonial Ladty, a Girl by the Sea and the incredible Lady Guinevere and Lord Merlin, as shown on the cover.

Additional goodins include tips on embellishing these bags, making and placing the fringe and what type of beads are used for the trim. A beauty, and a bargain.
