lap quilting book

every thing was as seller stated was very good experiance will buy from this seller again

Taking the stress out of machine quilting

This book has some excellent patterns. Patterns that are a little different, but still viable for a quilter of moderate ability. What I like best about the book is the section on lap quilting. Ms Bonesteel's method of putting the quilt together in strips and then quilting it section by section works out very well for machine quilting, because you are dealing with manageable segments, rather than trying to wrestle with a large quilt at the machine. They can be very unwieldy. While you have more hand work, the results are very neat and professional looking.

Inspiring and Thought-provoking

Georgia Bonesteel's book, Lap Quilting Lives!, has several innovative ideas for lap quilted designs. Her instructions are clear and well-written. (While I have chosen a quilt from this book to make, I haven't started the project yet.) The design choices are varied, from traditional patterns to modern-looking designs.I would have enjoyed seeing sketches of alternative colorways for several of these quilts.I'd recommend this book as thought-provoking and inspirational. Encourages "out of the box" thinking for quilters.
