Perfect for a novice quilter
Rating  (5)
Date: 2010-07-14
I am teaching myself quilting techniques after years away from a sewing machine. I found the projects very easy to follow and beautifully laid out. The instructions are detailed and there are three types of quilting methods outlined in the beginning of the book with step by step pictures. There are many smaller projects to get started on to practice your sewing skills. I sewed the sachet and the eye pillow in the first week. The results were great and have given me the confidence to try more difficult projects.

This is a fun book that I would recommend. Some reviewers have complained about it not having enough actual quilts patterns and, while I enjoy quilted non-quilts, I agree! The patterns are contemporary and a little off kilter and I like that. The instructions are well written, but not as "standard" as I've seen in other books. From what I can tell without a side by side comparison, this book contains all of the patterns in Denyse's boxed set so don't buy both.

This book is a whirlwind tour of the various indigenous styles found throughout the world. Full of photos, it has many opportunities for inspiration, as well as insightful text by the author. I figured out what color to paint my kitchen by browsing though this book. A keeper.

"GardenSpells" is a whimsically illustrated little tome who's over 30 charms and spells were gleaned from the journals of the author's great-grandmother, a Victorian "wisewoman". In this book you will find omens as foretold by "garden creatures", and lists of Zodiac or Angel related plants for growing in your magickal garden.
There are also spells which utilize garden plants such as this (abridged) one for an "Ivy Lovespell": "Ivy, ivy I love you,
"In my bosom I put you.
"The first young man who speaks to me
"My future husband he shall be." Written in a clear and concise style, with each of it's 88 pages chock-full of magickal spells and charms, this is THE book for the garden witch in all of us.

You're a Home Inspector or simply in search of picture after picture with little other detail other than technical information. If you are looking for advice on how to repair or fix items, DO NOT BUY this or other Carson Dunlop books in this series - The Illustrated Home. Carson Dunlop is a firm out of Canada that does produce good materials for Home Inspectors, but these are not "how to" manuals, nor are these books good for the average home owner. The reviewer g_clarke is, in my view, clearly associated with Carson Dunlop and his or her review should be ignored - check out his/her other reviews, they are worded exactly the same for each book in this series. Kind of sad when people write misleading reviews to simply increase sales. On the positive - DO BUY this book if you are simply looking for very detailed technical information.

If you just want to look at every single heating method available, then this book is for you. If you want some help repairing a problem, or adding ducting, this is not the book for you. All it has is many many pictures of various systems.

Lovely

Date: 2010-05-29
I was a little nervous about this book since I am a new knitter, but there really are patterns for all skill levels, including beginner. The two things I particularly like about this book is that the author does in fact rank the sweaters by difficulty and that most of the patterns are shown in two or more colorways. I would like to make more than 75% of the sweaters in this book which makes it a great bargain.

Great use of color

This book has great use of color and suggestions for many interesting projects. Only downfall is directions given in European size needles so needed to look up and write down the comparable ones for the US.

Best of Jo Sharp's collections
Rating (5)

Some of Jo Sharp's sweater designs are a bit outlandish for me, since I'm more conservative in dress, although I expect a good number of them, since they are colorful, unusual and eye-catching, can be quite popular. I was happy, though, to find this collection, which has something for everybody and certainly lots for me. Jo Sharp yarn is extraordinary -- quite unusual for our market, these are strong, substantial yarns that knit into luxurious garments on anywhere from the recommended size 6 needle to a size 8 or 9. They are expensive, comparatively, at $6.50 for a ball of 107 yards, but you get great coverage, and the end result is a sweater that is both durable, comfortable, easy to maintain, and versatile, not to mention warm. A whole sweater can cost about $100, which is not bad for the quality that you get. Knitting Bazaar has great designs for single colored sweaters, two colors, or the more complex trademark styles of multi-hued intarsias. Very inventive designs for the new colors added to her palette, and some wonderfully conservative styles that I can wear to work. The best of the collection, though, is Precious Jewel -- a brightly colored intarsia of op-art flowers and scrollwork. The cover style, Boheme, is also very attractive, as is the colorful Paragon. Sharp also gives us a cape, some pullovers (some in stranding or fair isle), cardigans and an attractively cabled jacket, casual wear and formal wear sweaters, cables and intarsias. Some designs are highly appropriate for new knitters, others are simple examples of intarsia or stranding for those just learning the techniques. Precious Jewel looks to be the most complex. In all, this collection is highly inventive, not so much a departure in Sharp's styles but a ripening -- and I think she's gone further into styling that is appropriate for the American market. Certainly she's one of the best designers out there, second in inventiveness only to Kaffe Fassett, who seems to be depleted as far as sweater designs, and comparable to Alice Starmore. Jo Sharp has 3 or 4 previous books, most quite good. Knitting Bazaar is a great collection, a pleasure to browse through, and well-worth adding to your knitting library.
