Industry Reviews

'Another terrific book from this stable. Quilted arts cover a wide range and this book is no exception. Learn how to create quilted journal or sketchbook covers. See how to transfer a landscape sketch or even a doodle into quilted fabric. Find out how to colour your own fabric. Discover how to use Lutradur to create boxes. Make quilted postcards or Christmas cards as well as fabulous wallhangings. Move on to three dimensional objects and bags. Lastly explore different materials for quilters including plastic. Full of inspiration, this book will have you buzzing with ideas. The usual fantastic production qualities of a Batsford book with fantastic layout, instructions and photography and wonderful projects. Do not judge this book by its cover - although it shows a beautiful quilted bag, it does not convey what lies within- the incredible innovative journey of a quilter who has experimented and refined her art.'
