CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Beginners Onlly -
I was sorely disappointed when I received this book. It should be clearly stated that this is a "beginners only" aimed at children. It was a waste of my money....Bonnie
- The home of teak outdoor furnitures
, simply quality bar stools
Disappointed -
This was the only gourd book that I have that I am totally disappointed in. I admire Sue Walter's gourd work but the book had 8 designs and patterns that I thought were some of her inferior designs. Maybe I was just expecting more from Sue as she is a great gourd artist. It was almost like she didn't want to share any of her great ideas but showed us the lesser ones. I wouldn't buy another book by her unless I hear rave reviews on it. The patterns were definitely gourd crafts and not gourd art.
SUPERB !!! -
Sue has done it again. A wonderful book for the gourd crafter. Happy to have added this one to my library. Very creative art.
don't judge a book by it's cover,how true! -
Very disappointed that this book did not have a actual gourd that was pictured on the cover "inside" the book! What a disappointment. I purchased this book for the eagle that was pictured on the cover. There was no pattern for such project.
Great selections of branded hammocks at
- surely the ultimate teak furniture store!
Creative Inspiration -
Excellent stimulation to be creative. Illustrated techniques provide creative ideas for all level of gourders.
