    2. I am sorry for that long link...HOWEVER...if you cut and paste it into your browser you will see you can score a copy of this book (softcover) for as little as $7 (price includes shipping) from a Goodwill store. There are many other reasonably priced copies of it also listed on bookfinder.com.

  2. Love the textile background...is it an image of the textile or an actual swatch?

    1. From a book that I own that contains 600+ fabric patterns...they are paper pages! But the reproduction is EXCELLENT. I responded to Fi (above) with a long link that will take you to www.bookfinder.com. You will see many copies for sale.

  4. I may have paid a little more (14 bucks), but I just ordered a copy of SWATCHES from one of the used booksellers who deal through Amazon...
