Fun & Unique Technique

This is a unique technique that I think will be a fun change to try. I plan on making a small wallhanging to get a feel for the process. Instructions upon first glance at the book look complete and there are numerous photos to help with more visual learners like myself. I really like the feel of the paper in the book too, which have nice, glossy pages and very colorful.

Wonderful Book!!!!!

I love this book. The instruction is so clear and very easy to follow. I was able to finish my quilt top in 8 hours (I have neither quilt or sew before). I hope for more of this kind of book. Highly recomended. Amy
