Dunno how good this is, however if it's legit it might be of
interest to you. It was sent directly to me for some reason.
Possibly because I was enquiring about the DMC Tapestry
Color Guides that Hazel Uzzel recommended.

However, I thought someone -might- like to have it and
give us a review. While we have books on Natural Dyes and
dyeing neither Ann nor I practice it.
