This book is missing key information like the measurements of the sizing.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Concise and readableBy chamgirlThough I am learning to marble on fabric; this book provided simple and easy-to-follow instructions on a number of classic marbling patterns that I havent been able to find elsewhere; as well as a great introduction to the art of marbling itself. I have used it as a reference several times now.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. This is a very good book teaching techniquesBy C.
