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 BVerified purchase: YesCondition: New

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.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

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!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
