Book Review of The Prairie Girl's Guide to Life: How to Sew a Sampler Quilt & 49 Other Pioneer Projects for the Modern Girl

I wanted this book for awhile but when I got it.... lame. The "projects" seemed to me to be kind of boring and the instructions were very simplistic. It suggests embroidering a haystack on a towel or pillowcase. But there's not design to trace which would be pretty standard for embroidery.
Then some projects that didn't seem very prairie girl to me... make night cream, create calling cards. Just didn't really turn out as fun of a book as I expected.
