Review
Drawn from Victorian originals, the 50-plus projects in this book provide a how-to survey of some favorite 19th-century crafts, a good introduction for anyone looking to try out a variety of skills before deciding which to pursue in depth. Designs range from needlework (quilting, needlepoint, cross-stitch, lacework, tassel making, beading) to papercraft (decoupage, quilling, papier-mâché) to floral and shell work, all accompanied by good color photos.
