This is the first Anna Croyle pattern book I purchased. I really like her style. Her patterns demonstrate an excellent sense of balance & movement, without being overly busy or bogged down in too much intricate detail. Many of the patterns are very easy without actually looking easy. The color pictures are really nice. I wish there had been a few more of them as her glass (color) choices are quite exciting. Her other contemporary pattern book is also a huge hit with me. I look forward to many more publications from her.
