Great for beginners

I was looking for information to make tedious machine-quilting easier. I kept losing the markings, or it took forever to mark bigger quilts. With just a little practice, I was able to use the techniques in this book to machine quilt a lap size quilt with pleasure! I love this book and will use it for many upcoming projects.

Great Fun!!

Thank you Kathy Sandbach! I LOVE your book!! I couldn't wait to read it all and just picked out patterns and had a go! Liberating, easy to follow and fun! With practise, I can do them all, not to this lady's standard yet, but I'm getting there and improvising with a little 'kiwi' ingenuity along the way...Until I picked up this book, I wasn't a quiltmaker at all, -just a quilt top maker...my how things have changed!

Show Me How to Machine Quilt: A Fun, No-Mark Approach

For those of us who aren't artists or doodelers, this gives us great ideas of what to put on all those tops we have made. If you can't picture a design to be put on top of your beautiful square......this helps. It is a great guide to get on with the next step and actually "quilt".

This is a great book. It contains many continuous line shapes you can follow and has great photo examples. I highly recommend it and will refer to it often. As a total beginner never having quilted anything by machine I recommend you also purchase Diane Gaudynski's Guide to Machine Quilting. Diane's book gave me more confidence to attempt machine quilting and shows more beginner style techniques. Now I can move on to the excellent continuous line sewing taught in Show me how to Machine Quilt.

Just do it! Start HERE!

Myth breaker #1 I've been quilting for 26+ years since I was a kid. Back in the 1970's the Quilt SNOBS filled the world with the ridiculous idea that ONLY hand quilting made an authentic quilt. Thanks to the Gene Autry Museum who put on a WONDERFUL show in the mid 90's dedicated to the years of machine quilting ever since the original HAND CRANK machines. American women aren't dumb, they wanted to finish as many quilts as possible with their precious time so they of course chose to USE machines.Myth breaker #2.. So you spend $45 for a 6 hour class to learn how to machine quilt only to find that the crux is put a brick on the peddle and just keep moving. Yes it is THAT easy.This book takes you FINALLY past all the myths and has you looking at the patterns and FREE MOTION drawing using the needle. I NEVER stipple my quilts any longer to fill in areas, I picked up a willow leaf pattern from this book that alone was worth the purchase of this book. The hardest thing about machine quilting is remembering to RELAX, this is a hobby you love so REMEMBER to enjoy yourself with this step of quilting as well!!!!
