This is a new book but I think it has been on the distributors shelves for some time now. It is clearly not used, the covers are fine with no edge wear and the spine is pristine but the inside cover pages appear somewhat darkened by age.
The edges of each heavy weight paper page have a smilier appearance.
This could be the way the printers meant them to look and I am too attuned to rare books and see the color as aged.
I do know the book was published in 1997 and that is 18 years ago. At any rate, it does not really matter (except that I am a fussbudget).
Quoting (and paraphrasing as usual) from the back cover:
"A heavily Illustrated collection of sixteen new Flower Designs in Ribbon Embroidery, some quite large, demonstrating the exciting three-dimensional effects which can be created with Ribbon &
Fabric." (or canvas, I added that)
Looking through this book I am very taken with these designs. The flowers are pretty and pop out at you. They would make a fine addition to almost any needlepoint or embroidery design.
The directions are clear and the templates would be easy to copy, change size or anything you needed.
Three-Dimensional Flowers In Ribbon & Fabric is a glossy cover paperbound book. Published in 1997 by Kangaroo Press in Australia. It has 62 pages.
