Quilting Books

I have been looking all over for books on transfer painting to cloth. This is worth it, especially if you can get a used copy. I wish I could find more books on the topic.

I love this book! The step-by-step instructions are excellent for any level quilter. The appliques are big enough for any applique method - turn , blanket stitch, zigzag, satin stitch. The appliques are also very versatile so they can be put on wall hangings, aprons, tea towels - not just the suggested quilt. The colors are inspiring! This book is lots of fun!

True love, like a beautiful handmade quilt, can piece together the many patterns and colors of two hearts...and the Quilting Romance Series celebrates this great American tradition! In "The Coming Home Quilt", Chandelle McBride had to find her ailing grandmother's "coming home quilt". Years ago, it had been stolen by a Yankee soldier. But Chandell wasn't sure private investigator Matt Winchester was the one to help her get it back. The handsome rogue's mocking smile and teasing manner were both irritating and intriguing. And a secret in his past made his soul an unreadable pattern. But Matt's strength kept her safe as they journeyed to Philadelphia, where the quilt was rumored to be. And as they traveled together, Chandelle began to dream - of a love that could stitch them together as securely as the pieces in a quilt. Could she penetrate his mysterious past? - and give them both the chance at true happiness?

The stripes and plaids really add zip to col weather quilts.
The applique placements are spot on and make it very easy. The colour coordination is lovely. I really enjoyed this book; and found it very inspirational. Remy.

Many different patterns and templates for quilting - 12 patchwork quilts, 4 appliqued quilts, 4 crib quilts, 6 banners or pictures, 6 pillows, 8 small things, and 4 pieces of clothing, in addition to general directions, applique techniques, and stitch details.

Loved the book. The patterns are very southwestern and very well done. Would love to have more of her books. But cant find any. The patterns are very helpful in making up my own patterns and the colors she uses are bold and very well put together.

An outstanding little book, the recipes are easy and yummy, the graphics are catchy and the quilting projects are all kitchen related a bread cloth, tea cozy etc. All in all it's a 6 star book in a 5 star world.

All New! Copy Art for Quilters furnishes dozens of great drawings for making your own greeting cards, price tags for craft items, writing paper. A complete section on holidays and lots of country, teddy bears, and cats make this a fun way to decorate all your paper items.

This has my vote for being the most romantic quilt in the world. Its style is soft, country, floral, large-scale, and definitely inviting. The rest of the books in the same series are similarly beautiful, but this one is my fav.

This book has so many beautiful quilts...British quilts...A Provence quilt...beautiful colors. Sure to inspire
