SUMMARY- This book is 25 years old now, so you'd be buying it used. Please check and make sure the folded pattern sheet is still intact in the back of the book before buying. Here's where I tell you that I'm not a big fan of projects built around novelty prints that will only be available for a season or two - I think they're a waste of space in magazines because even if a person loves the print, finding it will be impossible. The space could have been better utilized by the publisher for more timeless projects. This book is sort of like that, because it was designed to sell more Sulky threads. Sulky threads are still around, as of this review, and I really hope they're around for a few hundred years more(at least). Thread is nowhere near as obnoxious as novelty prints, of course. The projects in this book would look equally good with substitute threads. Don't buy it because it's Sulky, buy it because you like one of the projects it provides.
