(More customer reviews)This book has hundreds of perfectly-scaled projects for dollhouses and room boxes of many periods. What's so delightful about it (besides the detailed patterns) is that the objects are illustrated in fully-realized miniature scenes, like a mom reading a magazine in a macrame hammock in the back yard, head on a knitted pillow, baby on the ground beside her in a basked with knitted baby blanket, rompers and booties, and the basket's on a red knitted blanket spread on the grass. Or a kitchen scene with two elderly ladies seated by the stove working on hand crafts; one is knitting, the other embroidering. One has a granny-square lap robe, the other a woven shawl; knitted dishtowel and tea cosy, braid rug, X-stitch sampler and more are in the picture. Not to mention a pig rolling on the rug... It has a separate chapter on each the crafts...well, let me give you the chapter titles: 1. Knitting and Crochet (cushions, blankets, housewares, toys) 2. Knitted clothes (adults, children, babies) 3. Needlepoint and embroidery (cushions, pictures, furnishings, rugs) 4. Patchwork, quilting, and applique (cushions, furnishings, bedcovers) 5. Soft furnishings (curtains, bedding, linens, rugs, lampshades) 6. Dressmaking (underwear, nightwear, outerwear, hats and accessories) 7. Furniture and upholstery (stools, simple furniture, upholstered furniture) 8. Crafts and Accessories (beads, buttons, ribboncraft, macrame, basketwork)
