SUMMARY- Her instructions are excellent, with both diagram, written and good black-and-white picture. All of the patterns are for fairly small motifs. I tried checking out her website, but it was down at the time of this writing.

Mrs. Dusenbury had a great website where many of her patterns could be downloaded. I don't know if this is still true, but you can at least see some of her website still thanks to the Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20190204105036/http://teridusenburystattletales.blogspot.com/2014/08/seats-in-upright-position-and-fasten.html
