I get very frustrated when I want to buy a craft book online, but there are no photos of the patterns aside from one or two on the cover. This is no problem for knit or crochet books because I can easily search the book on Ravelry, but for other crafts it's not so straight forward. In my attempt to solve this problem, I have made this page with photos of completed patterns from various books. Please note that there are NO actual patterns or instructions on this page, as that is illegal and honestly just really rude to the designers. These are simply the photos of the completed designs as they appear in the books. Again, the purpose of this page is to help you decide if a book you're interested is really right for you.

If you would like to submit photos from your craft books please send photos or scans of your book to the email address on my "Contact" page with the subject line "Craft Book Photo Submission". You can also submit photos by uploading the files to Google Drive and emailing the link to me. Please do not submit any knit or crochet books or patterns. The images don't have to be cropped-- I will cut out any diagrams or instructions myself, but please make sure that your photos are well-lit and high-resolution. Your submission should also include a photo of the book's cover and publishing info. Before taking or submitting scans or photos, please use the search feature on your browser to check if the book is already represented on the site.
