As a child, I had very chubby cheeks.
My craft/life/stuff blog is bollewangenhaptoet and I made my debut in issue 5 of mixtape with the Second-Hand Book Review. There is, of course, only so much room in the 'zine for book reviews so I am delighted to be able to contribute a few more from my collection to the blog here.
Moving from Australia to the US earlier this year has, of course, provided me with a whole new array of second-hand craft books to choose from. I found these two at the Mercer Island Thrift Shop:
And that is why I was absolutely delighted at the same time to find this box set:
The Book of Patterns and Instructions for American Needlework! I'm assuming that these two volumes were donated by someone at the same time but I was so delighted to find them still both there. Fifty-one pattern sheets with charts and full-size quilting diagrams and so forth, all cross-referenced to the book above.
These beauties are still available on-line - have a look at ebay or AbeBooks.
