Dover Sampler
I’ve been in love with Dover Publications since I was a little kid. The coloring books! The cheap reprints of classics! The antique needlework guides! The cut-and-makes! The paper dolls, oh, the paper dolls! I just found out that Dover has an online sampler service. Just give them your email address, and every week you get a link to a webpage full of sample book pages to download and print out. Today I got two coloring pages, one from a stained glass coloring book and another from “Art Masterpieces to Color”. If I had a color printer, I could have printed out a page of post-impressionist postcards and a page of fruit-crate labels. And if I liked Tom Tierney I could have printed a page of one of his paper doll books. There are also pages from a book of poetry, a book of mazes, a book of butterfly crafts, etc., etc.

Hello Kara:
This is a small world. I have listened to you read many chapters and books on Librivox, and today while searching for a good purse pattern with pockets I found you again! So this time I’ll say hi and let you know I appreciate your recordings, and will try to use your tutorial to make myself a purse!
Cheers,
Jen
P.S. I just bought Dover’s Anne of Green Gables colouring book for my daughter who won’t be old enough to appreciate it for about 7 years. :)
