Review
More than just a craft book, this is a history of American folk art providing a fascinating insight into early American's ingenuity and artistic skills. From woodwork, metalwork and basket weaving to quilting, embroidery and rug making, Janice Eaton Kilby demonstrates how to make your own heirloom pieces for your home. From outdoor decorations such as the na ve angel weathervane to the more complicated pine needle basket to adorn your hearth, you will find ideas and inspiration galore. Clearly explained and illustrated, each section is accompanied by a brief history of the craft, painting a vivid picture of the early settlers' lives and the resources available at that time. Some projects can be achieved in a day, others will take you through the winter evenings, but all will provide a satisfying end-piece, to be treasured by generations to come. A charming book for all lovers of American heritage and crafts.- Lucy Watson
