Summary: Great step by step guidebook for beginning quilters
Comment: As a first time quilter I searched for a basic guide with colorful photographs and lots of illustrations. Alex Anderson's unitimidating book was the answer. It guided me through my first quilt, allowing me to piece a rail fence crib quilt by machine, and helping me through the hand quilting process The results were terrific, and my son sleeps under it every night!

Summary: Overall an excellent book for beginning quilters
Comment: This was the first purchase that I made when I decided to try my hand at quilting.Alex Anderson's extremely positive and motivating text is perfectly inspirational for the first-time quilter. The projects are not difficult, but you do feel a great amount of satisfaction when you've completed one. Each project is cleverly explained.She tells you exactly how much and what kind of fabric you need for each project and exactly what to cut and how to piece it together.Easy to follow steps. I only wish she would have written more about machine and hand quilting itself. With her vast knowledge of quilting and knack for explaining things I know she could've written a section on quilting that would've proven useful and enlightening to the beginning quilter. Nonetheless I am extremely happy with this purchase. I finished my first project in 3 days!

Summary: Great First Book for New Quilters
Comment: I had never quilted before in my entire life - this book got me started and made it so easy. I learned about rotary cutting, and the most common types of machine pieced blocks. I would recommend this book to anyone who has never quilted before. Also, Alex's recommendation that you have a walking foot for your machine is excellent advice. I did my first two quilts without it and was so frustrated because of puckering. Get a walking foot for your machine and if you can't find a walking foot that fits your machine, buy a new machine - that is how important it is to straight line machine quilting.
