Customer Reviews

Great book but lots of duplicates from another one of her books that I have.

This is a great designer who shares LOTS of info, tips, and beautiful designs. However, I have another one of her books and there are many duplicate designs and projects. That was disappointing but I would pay full price for this book if I had to!
