BUY THIS BOOK!!!

Before I read this book, I was unable to quilt a stitch. The instructions are clear and well-written, from a technical and literary standpoint. The illustrations are beautiful! I was also impressed with the creativity of the authors. I can't keep my mouth "All Buttoned Up" when it comes to how I feel about this book! It's great!
