  • Informative and comprehensive.

    This is a very good book for a beginner and someone more advanced.Easy to follow instructions with simple diagrams.very comprehensive introduction to many types of quilting and patchwork. Lots of tips and ideas to try. Plenty of colour pictures and drawings. A valuable companion to refer back to or just browse through for pleasure or ideas for new projects. (One slight negative is that the type throughout the book is quite small and some of it feint.) This is due to the large amount of information laid out on the page and designed to give you varying amounts of detail from very basic to more advanced etc. I am sure this is not a problem for those with good eyesight so don't let it put you off.Would recommend without a doubt.

  • Complete Reference

    I have recently purchased the The Quilter's Bible and so far have fully browsed all the pages and looked in more details at some parts. I am a new quilter and bearing in mind everything I have seen on line on Youtube or tutorials, etc., the Quilter's Bible is a complete reference to everything to do with quilting from fabric, colours, thread, popular speedy cutting processes. I have only completed few weeks ago my first project and have devoured the net for quilting 'know hows'. So, with my limited I think quilting knowledge, I am likely not to need any other reference for quite a while.
