Inspirational

I purchased a new sewing machine and was really looking forward to expanding my quilting skills. First, I wanted to improve my machine quilting skills given all the beautiful threads available. Second, I wanted to branch out from traditional piecing and, well, "let go"! This book was the inspiration I needed. The quilt photos illustrate wonderfully how Ms. Heine's own creativity flourished, and the text recounts the circumstances that inspired her. Toward the back of the book are techniques on how to draw with the sewing machine, how-tos on how to recreate some of her quilts, as well as needle and thread advice. It's a book with heart.Ms. Heine's quilts have appeared in many quilt shows. Imagine seeing your quilt hanging....with the back facing out! It happened to her. As she writes in her book, "It was at this point in my quilting career that I decided that the back was just as important as the front!" Incidentally, the quilt received a First Place ribbon and a Judges' Choice.If you want thread to make a prominent statement in your quilting and do much, much more than secure the layers; if you want to gain confidence in "letting go" and trying something new, I suggest you add this book to your quilt library.
