Book Reviews of Creative Smocking: Contemporary Design, Traditional Techniques

Book Review: Creative ideas for texturizing and smocking, great photos!
Summary: 5 Stars

This book has many lovely color photos and clear explanations of techniques. I found the directions easy to follow, and the pictures provide lots of creative ideas. I really liked the photos of texturizing techniques and the picture smocking ideas (like creating a landscape scene with smocking). I think this book would also be useful for all levels of smockers, from beginning through advanced.
