The book includes color photographs and color step-by-step folding diagrams. The author has done a really nice job at breaking each step down into a language that anyone can understand and follow. I think books like this are great. They get you started with beginner projects and then you build on those skills with additional project within the book. Great for all skill levels.

Best known as the inspiration behind the single-square, no-cuts, no-glue approach, the American origami master presents meticulously developed folding sequences that allow folders to create better models with fewer steps.

    I really like the A Year of Stone Painting: 52 Mandala Designs to Inspire Your Spirit Book! Those are some beautiful rocks on the cover!

    I’d like Alice Starmore’s Book of Fair Isle Knitting. The designs are so lovely and I’ve always wanted to try to create something with one of these patterns.

    I think The Art of String Figures would be interesting and fun (for adults and kids)!

  12. Rose Santuci-Sofranko says

    Their “The Book of Wild Flowers: Color Plates of 250 Wild Flowers and Grasses” looks lovely! Thanks and God bless!

    Some of my friends love to paint rocks so A Year of Stone Painting: 52 Mandala Designs to Inspire Your Spirit would make a great gift for them.

  22. Paul Nygard says

    The book “The Theory and Practice of the Mandala” looks intriguing. I’ve always heard of the significance of the patterns, but never thought about there being “leading authorities” to actually explain them. Might have to pick that book up.
