Author summary:
Leisure Arts is a major publisher of craft instructions. Linda Culp Calhoun is a prolific needlework designer who created a vast number of popular patterns for Leisure Arts, known for her clear, classic, and versatile design style.

The collectible value is low, particularly given the poor grade (heavy wear). Leisure Arts leaflets are extremely common. However, as a fundamental resource book (rather than just project-based), it remains consistently useful and popular.
