My First Quilting Book

I looked the book over throughly and thought that it was very informative. I did purchase this book for my wife to use as she is just beginning to quilt. She is on her second quilt for our oldest son and did say the book helped her alot. Her first quilt for the youngest son did take her two years to complete. She said if see had had this book it would have went a lot quicker.

Quiltmaking for beginners

Wonderful book for beginners. Quick delivery, book was like new.Looking forward to doing business again

Good beginner book

I thought that this book was very good for the beginner. It gives good step by step instructions and is very readable. However, I was disappointed that it did not cover paper piecing/foundation piecing.

Quiltmaking for Beginners

I really like how the book has directions for both machine and hand quilting side by side for every project in this book! I have wanted to learn both, and here's my chance! As the title suggests, this is a great beginner's book.

Quiltmaking for Beginners: A Stitch-by-Stitch Guide

I have bought other beginning quilting books, but I really like this one. It includes simple and more complex patterns and gives you the option of machine piecing or hand piecing since template patterns are included. The patterns in this book include a wide variety of traditional patterns as well as some original applique pattern designs. The pieced patterns outnumber the applique patterns, but the applique patterns that are included are very nice. Overall, I would give this book a 9 out of 10. One thing this book is lacking is an index.
