Yes, a large print should be the complete story unless it directly says 'abridged' on it somewhere. <br /><br />I think it's so much fun as a sewist to read books with stitching in them -- it's always engaging to see what the author has gotten right or not and to try to guess if they are a sewist too :)Melwykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04885378201188978664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6454299534973486652.post-69520801775743090342019-01-29T05:08:22.923-05:002019-01-29T05:08:22.923-05:00Hi Melanie.

It almost reminds me of a British TV series about 20 years or more ago, the name of which I have forgotten.<br />I have been able to put this on hold at my library, but only in large print.

There is always the 'ahhh' moments and we can relate, and at the same time always learn something. Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18286531350427715397noreply@blogger.com
