The Xew York Observer says of it: — 



" It tells you how to do everything in the way of fancy work; how to 

 prepare the materials, and how to use them afterwards. Parents ought 

 to get this book, and encourage the girls to study it. Teachers ought to 

 introduce it into school, and teach their pupils the use of these beautiful 

 arts. It will gladden many a home, brighten many a dull hour, and give 

 pleasure and profit to many an active mind." 



The New York Independent says of it : — 



11 It is impossible, by any merely verbal description, to convey a just 

 idea of the mechanical beauty of this book, or of its value as a household 

 companion in lessons of art."
