Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
2015 Reprint of 1945 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. If you want to build your own fireplace, or your own cabin in the woods with its wood-burning fireplaces, this book contains cabin plans and detailed instructions you will need. Written for the novice, it not only tells about cabins and fireplaces and how to build them, but about back garden fireplaces, designs for rustic furniture, out-door cooking menus, gateways, guard-rails and fences. It is filled with philosophy and wisdom on living in the out-of-doors. Meinecke was a well-known master cabin builder and do-it-yourself man. He not only wrote the book, but he printed the original edition himself on a small press in his own home and bound it in craft cloth laced together with stout cord. Still considered a classic work.

Category : Crafts & Hobbies
Languages : en

It’s quiltmaking made as simple as paint-by-numbers! With a new method called foundation piecing, you just follow a numerical sequence to stitch fabric onto a foundation. Even the smallest pieces meet precisely, quickly, and accurately. With 365 projects, you could make one every day of the year. They’re organized month-by-month, so you could make a patriotic quilt with the July blocks; a Thanksgiving quilt in November; a Christmas quilt with the December blocks; or pretty floral quilts with each month’s flowers. (There are also some whimsical designs such as the yellow submarine that marks the day the Beatles came to America.) Photos of quilts made with blocks for each month accompany the complete instructions for the entire foundation piecing process.

A must-have for every quilter: the ultimate pattern resource, with an astounding 5,500 blocks With 5,500 blocks to copy, adapt, and combine in countless ways, no quilter will ever have to run out of patterns anymore.

They're arranged by type--including 4-, 5-, and 9-patch patterns; circles and curves; octagons; diamonds; and 8-point stars--and all indexed alphabetically by name. There's even information on each block's source. As a special bonus Maggie Malone has included a section of Alphabet Patch Patterns to use for personalizing every block. No quilter can do without this book.

A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print.

From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde?
