This book gives lots of great ideas for fun projects and encourages socializing while crafting. In hard economic times it makes sense to make your own fun and this book is a great help. It makes you smile to read it.
I'm totally getting this book for everyone this holiday season!

I am possibly the least "crafty" person in the world. It took me three days to assemble a bbq grill and I've learned the hard way not to shop at Ikea (would it kill the Swedes to assemble the dag hammerskold chaise-lounge for me?). SO, reading a how-to type book that is SO FUNNY and so inclusive of non-crafters (un-crafters?) like me was really refreshing. The projects the author describes are doable and even if they are not, the fun to be had while attempting them is delicious. I am not going to get it together to knit anyone a sweater for Christmas or make a potholder for Channukah but I am definitely going to buy a bunch of these books for folks this holiday season. I really recommend it.
Craft your own community

It's so hard to find community these days, so why don't we "craft" it? That's exactly what this charming book teaches us to do. Using skills of older generations to bring our own generation (and even younger) together to chat, support, snack and craft. Having belonged in the past to a quilting club, and I am about the last person in the world that I ever would have expected at a quilting club, I can personally attest to how great these types of group activities can be to create a sense of community. This book is a great gift for a friend who might miss making macrame owls and colorful God's eyes at summer camp and craves the opportunity to re-live those days with like minded friends.
