Great for first time quiltmakers

This book is great if you are just starting out making quilts. It has a lot of pictures and very detailed descriptions of what to do. I made my first quilt with this book, and it actually turned out really nice!

A must have for my quilting library

I had checked out First Time Quiltmaker at my local library, renewed it twice and decided I needed to have this on my shelf. I have quilted for a number of years without much help or guidance so this has helped be fill in some of the basics I was missing.

Highly recommended for anyone interested in learning the creative craft of quilting

First-Time Quiltmaking: Learning To Quilt In Six Easy Lessons by Becky Johnston is an excellent "get-started" book. No prior experience is assumed by lessons that walk the beginner through preparing the fabric, sewing accurate seams, assembling the quilt top, making the quilt sandwich, and finishing the quilt. Full-color photographs and numerous step-by-step diagrams add a visual touch to this easy-to-use guide, spiral-bound to lay flat for easy reference while quilting. Highly recommended for anyone interested in learning the creative craft of quilting.
