Crazy Quilters Dream Book

I was very fortunate to be able to take a class from the late author, Arlene Dettore. Prior to that class, I must say that crazy quilting was not one of my favorites but after the class, I was hooked. This book gives every detail of crazy quilting and the beautiful decorative stitches that truly makes the quilt. All the embellished stitches are shown in full color and the color photos of the projects makes this book one of the best. I have used this book many times, not only for ideas but for pleasure in it's valuable information, not to mention just the joy of looking through this book. I know that those who purchase this book will be very glad that they did. Arlene was a very dedicated instructor and the love of her work shows throughout this book.

I've Worn This Book Out!

I've used this book so much I had to take the embroidery section out an use it separately it's so great. A good starter book for learning patchwork. Very good instructions.
