Invisible Applique by Ami Simms

Very good book for beginners and even seasoned quilters. I never thought of doing applique the way she shows in the book. It's a little difficult at first but she explains it very well and with a little practice you wonder why you weren't doing it this way in the first place!!! Ami Simms has a great sense of humor which I enjoyed all through the book!! The humor alone was worth the price!!!

You CAN do it, too!!

This book is great. I have tried applique before and thought I did a pretty good job but this book showed me how I could do better and it was so easy. I actually checked this book out at my local library. I learned so much from it I wanted it to keep. I tried to buy it from the library. They wouldn't sell it. I am glad I found it here because my local book stores do not carry this book. If you have ever appliqued or are interested in trying out applique but are afraid you can't do it, wait no longer. Order this book - YOU CAN DO IT TOO and you will be very pleased with the results!!

For beginners or experts

Ami's techniques are incredible. Never again do I have stitches showing on the edges of my applique. Her methods allow you to create an applique seam that sinks into the work, instead. If you are a beginner, this is how you need to learn. And if you are an expert, this will help you improve. Detailed instruction and drawings are included and confusion is next to none. I lived in fear of this method of quiltmaking and could just kick myself for what I was missing! Reasonably priced as well. You can't beat it!
