The book arrived in a timely manner and was in like new condition. I was very pleased!

Awesome

Just what I was looking for. This book contain so many idea on what to do with my novelty fabrics and panels. I'm stuck no longer. I have started to create my quilt with great success. Thanks

What a neat book!

Have you ever been to a fabric store, spotted a panel print of a favorite subject, brought it home, then wondered what on earth to do with it? This book helps the quilter who wants to explore quilting using fabrics with, for example, panel pictures, large-scale prints, or border prints. The author goes way beyond simply quilting up the panel as it was cut from the bolt. She shows you ways to explore cutting, setting, and quilting your panel fabrics in ways that enhance and preserve the original artwork of the fabric. I especially enjoyed seeing one quilting pattern completed with two different fabrics. Her instructions are clear, concise, and utilize color so that even the beginner quilter can successfully complete a quilt using those great panel fabrics. You'll never shop for fabric the same way again!

quilting with panels

This is a good guide for quilting printed panels and borders as it offers different ideas on how to make up the panels for a variety of projects.It is the only book I have seen that deals solely with printed panels.

Want to know what to do with that theme fabric you bought?

Susan's book will give you great ideas for using that theme print in beautiful quilts. It's one of those "why didn't I think of that?" books with plenty of instructions and color ideas. Her second book MORE CLEVER QUILTS gives you more and different quilts, well worth the purchase.
