This is a stunning collection of floral designs which can be used in a variety of projects. The versatility of the designs is endless as you can enlarge the designs on a photocopier or trace the designs as part of a drawing. Delicate flowers, folk-art flowers and even art-deco flowers feature in this book. This really is a useful book to have as it becomes an excellent reference book. A few ideas which I have used this book for is card-making, making garden ornaments and even silk cushion covers. The possibilities are endless.
