About the Author: Since 1983, Diana Vandervoort has studied, designed and written Temari patterns and books. As a high school art teacher, Diana's instructions are English-focused rather than Japanese. They are clear and simple, visually combined with ample illustrations and diagrams. Her books have been best sellers in the field of Temari for many years. A regular television demonstrator on TNN's Aleene's Creative Living with Crafts and HGTV's Carol Duvall Show, her name became synonymous with the craft of Temari. This Beginner book provides a series of patterns that introduce the most basic types of Temari and their unusual stitching techniques. Each chapter is a building block toward success. Many have learned Temari from Diana's clean, clear and complete instructions.
