Customer Reviews

terrific inspiration for machine quilters

This book is completely unique in the world of quilting designs. All are intended for use with a sewing machine, although it need not be a longarm quilting machine. I did fine with several of them on a regular Bernina. I am sick to death of precise, cutesy feathers and hearts. This book was like a fresh breeze coming through, letting me see machine quilting in a whole new way. Not only have I used the designs, I have been able to invent some of my own using inspiration from this book. Most of all, it loosened me up. Straight, perfect lines are NOT always best. These naturalistic, freeform designs were just what I needed. AND the book is so [inexpensive], how can you go wrong?

Very Creative

This book is full of mix and match designs that are very easy to follow. Any one can do these arrangements. There are designs for sports, recreation, animals, flowers and textures. I got out some fabric right away and jumped in with new enthusiasm!

250 Continous line Quilting Designs for Hand, Machine....

This book reminds me of the Japanese methods of hand quilting. There are many patterns and details to assist even a new quilter to make interesting patterns. I was delighted to find all of the patterns in the book and they are broke down into groups.(Birds, sea life, ...) Anyone wanting to incorporate designs into their work would be pleased at this book.

Lots of ideas

There is a little text at the front of this book but it is basically a compendium of original designs. They are broken into categories like Home & Garden, Birds, Flora & Fauna, Domestic or Woodland Animals, Under the Sea and Textures. The designs can be single motifs or actual scenes. Many can be grouped to create even more elaborate designs. Some are quite simple; others would require a fantastic eye or marking the quilt. If you have searched for something different and non-traditional to add to your quilts, this book should be in your library.
