The book introduces beautiful Peruvian Ayacucho Embroideries and their patterns.
Brightly colored woolen embroidery from the Ayacucho region of southern Peru.
This is the world's first technique book that even beginners can enjoy.
Ayacucho, located in southern Peru, is a city at an altitude of 2,731 meters above sea level, surrounded by the Andean mountains, with various folk art villages scattered throughout the beautiful green valley.
The city is known as the "Capital of Folk Art" because of the variety of folk art that can be found here, and is particularly famous for the beauty of Ayacucho embroidery, which is made with brightly colored woolen threads.
Ayacucho embroidery is said to have been created when the weaving tradition that existed before the Spanish colonial period in the 17th century was combined with Western techniques.
While many traditional Andean handicrafts were banned during the colonial period, embroidery was not, and has been passed down from mother to daughter.
The motifs have been created under the influence of nature and Andean culture, such as the plants, flowers, and birds that grow in Ayacucho.
This book carefully explains the unique stitches and motifs often used in Ayacucho embroidery.
In addition to a collection of designs of common plant motifs, the book also suggests small fabric items for daily use such as pouches and cushions that incorporate the designs.
The book contains designs and recipes that can be enjoyed by a wide range of people, from those who are new to embroidery to those who are already familiar with it.
Ayacucho embroidery uses Peruvian acrylic, alpaca, and wool yarns, but the materials used in this book are handicraft yarns and fabrics that are easy to purchase in local craft stores.
Since thicker threads are used than embroidery threads, it takes less time to complete a piece of work compared to general embroidery.
The vivid colors and strong motifs unique to South America are sure to bring a smile to the faces of many who pick up a needle.

Pack's Promise was okay but not great
Format: Kindle
Pack's Promise was okay but not great. I won't recommend it to anyone that I know.
PRO:
* Very likable characters
* Lots of steamy scenes that are written very well
* The spelling and grammar are good
* The punctuation is good with the exception of using hyphens instead of commas. Lots of hyphens. Lots and lots of hyphens.
CON:
* Almost no interactions with any characters outside of Madison and the pack
* Nearly no plot. They meet, get together for a heat, agree to make it permanent, done
* Quite a few typos such as extraneous words, missing words and words out of order
THINGS TO KNOW:
* More steamy scenes than storytelling
* A lot of MM & MMM, some MFMM during heat

Fluffy and Nice Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
… this would have made 5 stars but for 2 reasons.
A.) there were quite a few typos; misspelled words, missing quotations, “the his” mistakes, and various signs that maybe a proofread would do good.
B.) the writing was quite textbook. Late blooming omega is struggling with her new self, finds a absurdly wealthy pack of alphas, every thing is almost insta-love but she resists, then decides to love herself and let everyone be happy.
Rian was my favourite (obviously the author’s favourite too because he got the most page time) but I wish we could see more of his CEO side? He went to work maybe ONCE the entire time. Gray was supposed to be the “growly one” but he turned out to be puppy dog. Lucas was a genius brainiac doctor - but also super alpha with an aggressive hindbrain with a breeding k*nk?? And then there was no actual “breeding”??
Spice 3/5 - normally omegaverse books are super high on messy smut but this was tamer.
Romance 3/5 - insta-love that was then resisted because of personal hangup’s
Plot 2/5 - weird paced head hopping, showing the same scene from different POV’s that made me feel like it was 2 steps backward, 1 step forward.
Humour 4/5 - there were a dozen lines that genuinely made me chuckle out loud
Would have been five stars but the lack of proofreading and the predictable plot made me unable to get up to ADORED IT level - four stars is still and official ENJOYED IT, y’all. This isn’t a bad rating. The “Club Heat” has intriguing possibilities so I’m going to give the second one a shot.

Fun with a late blooming omega
Format: Kindle
I like this book. The story is fun, cute, and sexy. There's just a little drama, some excellent, steamy scenes, and a fairly good relationship building storyline. I especially like how all the main characters are a bit older than the usual 20 somethings I tend to see in this kind of book.
Having said that, I wish there were more descriptions of the places, as well as the food in the fancy restaurant. I enjoyed the cocktails at the club, so I missed that kind of detail when Gray took Madison on a dinner date. I also wish there had been more interaction between Lucas and Madison, and Lucas and Rian. It felt a bit lopsided, with a focus on Rian, Madison, and Gray.
I wish it had been proofread - there are a lot of typos, but nothing too distracting.
