Jenny's wonderful Torchon wildflower patterns in a book.
Covers eight different Australian wildflowers, and prickings for handkerchief edges, bookmarks, ovals and/or mats for each flower.

Many pages of clear working instructions and diagrams, including directiions for working a handkerchief edging from the top to the botton, allowing a fancy corner to be worked at the bottom corner.

My difficulty has been chosing a couple of pages to scan to use to illustrate this review!
