    Ordered from USA and arrived to me in UK about 10 days later. Book appropriately packaged and mostly as described. Was missing the cd as listed but communication with the seller was friendly and polite if not a little confusing - partial refunds are only offered after you start the formal eBay return request process, they aren't capable of giving refunds after simple messaging to customer service. All in all though, great value and a positive transaction. Would interact again 👍

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

    Have ordered books a number of times from ThriftBooks, via eBay, over the years, and the transactions have always been super-smooth. It was the same way this time. Sturdy packaging for the shipments. Condition / appearance of books was even better than described. As always, an excellent value, particularly with the free shipping as well as the promotional discount for ordering three or more books at a time. Love it!

  • Excellent product

    I already knew I wanted the book before my husband ordered it. Since the end of May 2016, when my daughter and I went to a Quilts of Valor Expo in Des Moines,IA, where I took a class on "Hexi es", I have become addicted to English Paper Piecing.I have already made several of the optional variation listed. WHAT FUN!! . I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in English Paper Piecing to add to their personal library. Thanks' Linda B

  • A marvelous resource for even a beginner!

    I have only begun to enjoy this very thorough treatment of the details of EPP. The written content is very helpful. The photos and illustrations give a very clear picture of choices, treatments and techniques. There are lots of project ideas and plenty of technique suggestions from one who obviously has a wealth of experience.

  • Wonderful book!

    I love this book, I just started with EPP a few months ago and this has been extremely helpful. I didn't want a book with a ton of projects, I wanted a book starting out with the basics. Thread, templates, fabric and moving up from there and this book is exactly that. It has some projects in it but it gets you started and doesn't make me feel silly about all the questions I have. I highly recommend it!
