Summary: Solid teaching book
Comment: This book will give you allot of ideas and more importantly a method to build those skills. It has the edge over Hargrave's book in that it is a solid tutorial; her's really is an advanced book. That said it is colourful and bright but the pages are rather busy with all these little 'notes'. Each section is done by the 'expert' of that type of quilting and in some cases can stand alone as there is a small box at the bottom giving getting started hints "Let's get started" :-)
It follows in the beginning the same format, chapter for chapter, of the Hargrave book, the difference being this is more aimed for quilters brushing up on their work (re-learning) or beginners.
A solid way to learn how to machine quilt and what's needed, batting choices included.
Rating: 5
Summary: Very helpful and encouraging.
Comment: I am still working my way through this book, which is broken into segments by method with various authors according to her specialty. I have gained a lot of confidence, still working on the lessons, but the illustrations and instructions are very clear and the applications via quilts in the back, are inspirational to keep at it. The one drawback: each method is taught as using a 14" square for your practice piece. I'm getting a lot of unrelated practice pieces; hate to waste them. A future edition might take into account making a constructive use for these squares as some sort of sampler quilt.
Rating: 4
Summary: Really great resource
Comment: If you are not able to learn machine quilting by taking a class or learning by watching someone else, this book is the next best thing. There are a LOT of clear pictures and easy descriptions of the techniques. I keep it right beside my machine.
