The paper holds up to light watercolor, acrylics, pen drawings, etc. I especially like the light weight of the lines, so you can draw over them if you want to. I love how they flipped the direction of the secret back ...

Truly, A Treasured Artform
Many sewing Artforms have been abandoned and are not being passed down to the following generations due the advancement of technology, particularly the introduction of automated sewing machines that speed up the completion of sewing projects.

Perhaps that's what it is about this book that got my attention. ...
