SUMMARY- This is my favorite of all Ms. Solomon's books. When I had trouble with the Pine Cone pattern and contacted her for help, she was quite patient and very helpful. I've made the simple leaf, oak leaf, acorn, pine needles and pine cone, and silver maple leaf. I've been working on a Fall cloak since last September, and all the patterns for the leaves I'm using for it came from this book! Her designs gave me enough incentive to learn mock rings, split chains(my nemesis), and floating chains, as well as finding out what a lock stitch was. I'm very good at the basics, but never really went much beyond them till I started this project. I highly recommend this book.
