Country Handcrafts Spring April/May 1984 Volume 2 Number 4

FULL-SIZE PATTERNS
For 50 exciting original projects . . . for brides and babies, afghan, spring fashions, appliqued quilt . . . and much, much more!

The magazine is in good used condition. I see no writing in or on this book. The Pull=out full sized Patterns are still in the book in like new condition.

From the Editor:

CONTENTS

It begins innocently enough those first stirrings of a creative itch that must be scratched. An inner voice suddenly whispers, “You can make that craft!”

Soon you’re enjoying trips to fabric and craft shops, and materials are somehow following you home. At-first hesitant hands become busy with knitting needles, crochet hooks, templates, acrylic paints and coping saw.

And then, before you know it, you’ve developed a full- flowered handcraft habit—and can proudly proclaim, “I made it myself!”

A pattern (any pattern) becomes just a framework for you. Your creative mind keeps searching for that “something” to set your work apart...

If you’re smiling as you read this, welcome! You are among friends—other dyed-in-the- wool crafters who see every project as a possibility... and a chance to add our own special touch.

Country Handcrafts is your magazine, here to keep your creative itches scratched. And we’ll “feed your habit” with the newest techniques as well as the time-honored traditionals.

So sit back and whet your appetite with our good-enough-to-eat projects. . . then maybe tackle the kind of craft you’ve never tried before.

Remember... you can do it!
