This is definitely more of a pamphlet, at 32 pages, than a book. Of the five projects, three are decorative items and two are kind of functional (a bookmark and a book cover). They have a not-quite-vintage but more old-fashioned vibe to them. The Techniques and Supplies section is at the front and takes up half of the book, but it's still rather abbreviated. This is an okay book to get you started in needle felting, but there are many other books that will inspire and educate you further.

Delightfully simple directions and wonderful photos. I am looking forward to doing a few of the projects in this book.
