SUMMARY- The all patterns except for embrodiery are there. The ordering information for the embroidery patterns was placed at the end of each project's description. You get a black-and-white photo of each sample article, to show you how the pattern should turn out. This came out on the leading edge of a renaissance for the needlearts that rolled for about two decades, when a ton of designers came to prominence and fought for their audiences' egg money.
