Audubonrsquo;s ambitious project to paint all the birds of North America resulted in a work that represents one of the greatest advances in ornithology. Not only did he identify new species; he also depicted birds within their natural habitat and in vivid poses. This impressive collection ranges from the Greater Flamingo and Bald Eagle to the Carolina parakeet. Audubon describes every species in concise texts; drawing attention the peculiarities of each bird.

I have other patterns from almost all of the designers in the book; and am looking forward to making almost everything in this book! I love that it has different bags; totes and even things to make for men; which is not easy to find! This is a great resource for making many different kinds of bags; and each and every one can be adapted in one way or another; which is always so fun to do!12 of 13 people found the following review helpful. Unique Projects - New PerspectivesBy T. BlockJust finished perusing this book and am very happy to see the array of diverse projects! Directions look fairly comprehensive; especially for anyone with sewing experience. While one author lives in the US and the other lives in Canada; a variety of designers contributed these designs. Although one (negative) review claimed that hardware had to be ordered from the Canadian author; that is absolutely not true. Ive seen most of the required hardware in my local big box stores and even some local quilt shops. Im looking forward to making several of these projects and will update my rating and review after Ive had the time to sew something!15 of 17 people found the following review helpful. Great book with over a dozen terrific projects!By Tina JThe book is well written with lots of clear diagrams. Although the book is broken up by experience; easy; intermediate; and advanced; the projects are easy enough for all skill levels. I appreciate the intro includes various tips and that each project materials list is detailed and specific to include the types of interfacing and hardware that can sometimes be tricky to find. For example; listing an "all purpose" vs heavy duty vs #5 zipper. I am excited to get started. The airport sling will be my first project! My MIL wants to borrow the book to make the gym tote. I may have to get her a book of her own; her birthday is next week.
