Book: How to Make Whirligigs & Folkcraft Objects

From an Amazon review:
The book is a treasure trove of ideas, examples, information and entertainment all centered around crafts and skills that have nearly vanished from our cultural landscape. I was looking for a few whirly gig plans and found so much more in the narrative examples and instructions that ranged from making animals out of pine cones, to traditional quilting methods! An added bonus lies in the amazing illustrations that accompany each item that are, by themselves, beautiful works of art. I recommend this book to anyone with an interest in American folk craft, toy making, history or just an appreciation of an entertaining read.
Here's where you can get a used How to Make Whirligigs and Whimmy Diddles and Other American Folkcraft Objects.
