Summary: This useful book contains detailed patterns of 68 beautiful weather vanes, each modelled on an original American folk art masterpiece. The complete instructions — for enlarging and reducing the patterns, making the weather vane, and putting together the standard that supports the weather vane — make it easy to know which way the wind blows. But that's not all: you can use these charming patterns for dozens of other folk art projects, including Christmas ornaments, cribbage boards, bookends, chopping boards and children's toys.
