Sewers will appreciate that the 16-plus patterns are made of felt, one of the easiest materials to work with, and kids will love playing with the finished products as another way to experience the beloved rhymes. Each pattern, somewhat naïve in style, follows the same structure: materials needed, occasional tips (e.g., how to obtain an even blanket stitch), and step-by-step instructions. Actual full-size templates are found in the back, with the option to download from the web.
