Very creative, and all the techniques are fully explained, with variations, materials, etc being discussed as well as the basics. I thought the aunt and uncle fabric dolls with fabric printed photo heads were especially nifty. A great book to stimulate my creativity, and I definitely enjoyed Karol's quirky handmade style, but not a book so indispensably useful that I'd ever consider buying it. (
