SUMMARY- This is a nice small collection of holiday patterns created by a variety of designers(Florence Anthony, Nellie Becker, Bev Dillon, Monica Hahn, Rebekah Hollenbaugh, and Betty Mestrovich). I put their names in parentheses next to their projects in the Table of Contents for those people hunting down the work of specific designers. The photos are good(black-and-white), the instructions are very well broken down and easy to read, and they're printed on better quality paper than usual for a House of White Birches(who used to be Tower Press) publication. My favorite was Nellie Becker's Pineapple Doily, but Rebekah Hollenbaugh's exquisite Collar #21 came in a close second. This is a small collection - only eleven(11) patterns, but I think every one of them is a gem.
