The cover says it all ... "Distilled from SuZy's Small Stitches and SuZy's SurpriZe Stitches". This small book contains over 100 stitch diagrams from two of SuZy's wonderful stitch books, minus her tips and hints. It is a great book for travel or guild meetings. You can cross reference to the bigger books to get SuZy's tips and suggestions, and then just take the portable book with you.
