Simply One of The Best !

Of all my quilting books (and I have tons) this is the reference book I keep coming back to. No matter what you need, this book will give you answers and ideas. If I could only keep one of my quilting reference books it would without a doubt be this one !

Quilts! Quilts! Quilts! is a must have!

As a busy working mom, who likes to do weekend projects, I wanted how to learn how to quilt. I do not come from a quilting family, and though I am a average sewer, the only thing that I had ever successfully quilted (if you even call it quilting) was a very simple gingham crib quilt for our first child. I thought that quilting was simply going to the fabric store and buying some cute fabric, going home and start cutting into pieces. No wonder why I have so much scrap fabric left. I would end up frustrated and have a complete mess! I purchased Quilts, Quilts, Quilts, and couldn't put it down until I finished reading the whole book. It is meant to be used as not only a work book, but also as a resource book. It gives you tons on information on topics such as color choices, fabric choices, and patterns from easy to difficult. Plus much much more! I would recommend this easy to use book as a great starting place, especially if you are like me and have a closet full of unfinished projects that were never finished, because you thought you knew what you were doing, but really didn't. Read the book and learn how to do it. I was totally amazed at what I could do just after reading the book and doing the recommended practice exercises!

one of the best quilting books i have ever read.

a truly lovely book,excellent for the new quilter or the more experienced one. i would refer to it as a quilters bible.

The reference bible for every quilter from novice to expert

With over 2 dozen quilt books in my library, if I could only keep one, this would be it. It clearly and concisely outlines everything you need to know from basic techniques to choosing fabrics. Also has a full range of patterns that covers the gamut with detailed instructions. A REAL winner and worth its weight in bold.

Classroom in a book

I have purchased other instructional quiliting books in the past, and this book certainly exceeds them all in quality and informative worth. Already an able seamstress, this book answered many questions I have had about the quiliting process, and tipped me off about procedures that I can carry over into my normal sewing. Overall, I feel well prepared to enter this new dimension of sewing and am happy to make my mark in such an age old art. Buy this book especially if you are a novice - it has everything you need, from templates, detailed instructions, practice exercises, color help, and whatmore, fosters a deeper appreciation of the needle and thread.
