I'd rate this lower, if I could.
The funniest one, is the cover chart. I wouldn't stitch ANY of these things, and I do have a twisted sense of humor. Do yourself a favor - take this book out of the local library (I got it on an interlibrary loan), and look it over, before you think about buying it or even wasting a credit on it.
The "best" chart in here, is a skull covered with flowers, for La Dia de los Muertos, if that's a holiday you like. The pillow trilogy of the fly, flyswatter, and fly guts that you're supposed to stitch up and put on your sofa, is actually pretty repulsive.
The only GOOD thing about this book - you don't have to break the binding to make a working copy of a chart, the black and white charts come attached separately, in a little pocket, on the inside rear cover.
