Reader Reviews
A spiral bound self published book by an author who, I am sure, knows a lot about the subject of quilts. He made an excellent effort at putting together this book, but the pictures were disappointing as most of the quilts were laying flat and one could not get a good feel for the patterns. Also, the "color photographs" mentioned are really poor copies of color photographs taped to the page. For the price of this book I would have expected a more professional product. Also, while he did mention the importance of stitching, he didn't show good examples of stitching such as quilting designs within the actual quilt pattern, how many stitches per inch, evenness of stitches, etc. I'll give him credit, though, for putting effort into the book and I am sure it will be helpful to someone who know's nothing of quilts--but not me.
