New books!

I hope everyone has been having a great long weekend! Isn't it ironic that the last long weekend of the summer should be the best weather we've had all year?

This book is a new one I got the other day and I love it! I had read about it somewhere on the internet and it sounded interesting. There are all kinds of techniques to explore in it and tons of eye candy. I like the fact that none of the supplies are overly expensive or, better yet, things I already have. These two books were in our local Friends of the Library sale this month and I snapped them up. I'm not quite sure what the attraction was for the Celtic designs, but they caught my eye and maybe will be useful at some point. The other book was a find! It has a teeny bit of water damage on the top but not enough to harm the book. It also has tons of information and gorgeous full-colour pictures. I thought these were worth $1 each!

  3. Total bargains, lucky you. I must go looking for the Sherril Kahn book, but they're so expensive by the time they get downunder.

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
