5.0 out of 5 stars exelent instructor, May 25, 2009

fabraholic "an average home crafter" (Mesa, AZ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Applique in Bloom (Paperback)

This is one book you'll never be sorry you spent money for. This book gives you more than the usually quilt books for sale. Gabrielle Swain is an excelent instructor of applique' technique. I have several books on the subject but for teaching purposes this is the only one a person really needs. Swain also includes full size patterns to make templets for a number of projects, including 5 fabulious quilts of various sizes. Complete with instructions & fabric requirments included. You can be proud of any thing you create from her book.
