SUMMARY- I finally found an original copy of Norma's 4th Home Beautiful book! It took about half a year to reach me because of the pandemic and thanks to the heroic efforts of Jenni Clark to thread the discombobulated Aussie mailing system. I've restored the cover as much as possible without removing the marks of age from it. The paper has darkened considerable and is becoming brittle, so I have to handle it with extreme care. I'm going to scan it so I can bind a copy I can then study without fearing disintegration. I've put the Table of Contents under the picture of the cover. As with all of Norma's work, it is exquisite. This book did not come with an embroidery transfer supplement, but was just straight tatting patterns using Norma's usual notation.
