"Good silhouettes" according to Carole Dyer. These are very good silhouettes. So far only a few of them have been useful to me for my projects but I expect to use more in the future.. "good variety" according to Amazon Customer. This has a big variety of silhouettes. They look do-able to me. It would be best if it had an index.. "great" according to @$$. this book is great and has lots of great pics
