One Kind of Faith
G Soto
Rebound by Sagebrush
, 2003
In this new collection of poems, Gary Soto once again displays his impressive poetic range- funny, sad, urbane, naïve. He digs deeply into his California hometown of Fresno and explores the wonder of the everyday in an ever-shifting world. In Soto's poems, precocious Berkeley dogs practice feng shui, raisins march out of a factory under the nose of the night watchman, and shirts are ironed "with the steam of Mother's hate." In the darker second ...
The Kind One

Perhaps the best novel I've read all year!
Tom Epperson's THE KIND ONE is classic literature and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Epperson's eye for period detail is extraordinary, and his ability to paint his characters' inner turmoil is as good as I've seen in any of the great, 20th Century authors. The characters are charming, complex, believable. The plot had me guessing right to the end. This was an absolutely satisfying read ...

Beautiful Book
Because of the subject matter, woven bags, I had looked forward to the publication of this book for several months. I did not realize that all the projects are made on a rigid heddle loom. In addition to inspiring weavers to make beautiful bags this wonderful book could also be used to learn rigid heddle weaving. The directions are easy to understand and are supported with clear, good photos. All ...

Review of Sock Innovation
This book is incredible! Each pattern is more beautiful than the next. Not only does it include amazing sock patterns but Cookie also gives insight on her thought process when designing socks. One thing I wasn't ready for: all of the sock patterns are charted and not written out. I've decided I'm going to learn to read charts! I'm sure it's a good skill to have!! And I can't wait for her ...

Excellent Teach Yourself Technique, Great Results
This is probably one of my favorite quilt books. It's extremly easy to follow and teach yourself. I've made several quilts now using this technique and each has come out different yet fantastic. It's such a great way to use a fabric with a pattern that you're not crazy about but might love the colors. I now look at fabric in a whole new way, by forming my fingers into a triangle and seeing ...

Good Reference Book for Hand-Created Graphic Elements
Ever since I graduated from college in 1979 with a degree in industrial design, I have been watching the current trends in various design disciplines. From taking two courses in graphic design and package design, I remembered how labor intensive and time consuming the whole creative process was without the aid of computers. Done entirely by hand and/or by photomechanical means, the final ...

For example: An ancient, chipped flower box is set on an elegant dining table. Pink roses spill out of the flower box to create a really stunning visual statement. Vintage fabrics, many of them lovely with antique lace, can be put ...
