This is a great basic book for learning to quill. There are many projects and numerous techniques, not just the flat scroll work, but also free standing miniatures and some leaf cutting, etc. However, I find most of the projects to look very old-fashioned in a way that is tacky rather than charming--wall hangings of chickadees and the like. This book is particularly good for making more complicated Christmas designs or variations for many basic flowers. If you are learning to quill, this book is a good place to start, but if you are already familiar with quilling, you might want to go for a book with more contemporary ideas and patterns.

Started Quilling with this book, after 3 years still go back for to it. My favorite amoung all my quilling books. Easy to understand and follow.

I bought this book to learn about the techniques and necessary (& additional) supplies. Included in the history, this book features some great color photos of antique items. The techniques and shapes section gives specific directions for each shape used in this craft. Each project also contains a finished color photo along with a design pattern and fantastic instructions. All of the projects are very differnt; some holidays are included; also 3-D, freestanding, and miniatures. I am extremely satisified with this purchase!!

This book is #1

I own 10 Quilling books, This book offers a variety of projects. The instructions are easy and good for the beginners as well as advanced Quillers...

I just wish there were books out for us Quillers that offered more patterns...

This book has many ideas for all quillers from the novice to the very experienced. Lots of projects and super ideas!

I am an ardent collector of craft books, and have three on quilling now. Of those I have, this is the best one; it covers the basic technique itself, exhibits the many various shapes, gives helpful suggestions on form, design and uniformity, and provides the student with a number of useful suggestions for finished projects. (I also enjoyed the book because it wasn't filled with the "I" word every other sentence.)

Have owned this book for several years and I keep going back to this basic book.

This my first quilling book and i love it. It has some great patterns including a cross, minature plants, kitchen herbs and more! I recommend this book for both beginners and advanced quillers.

I have been quilling for a number of years and have several books, and this one is the best I have found so far. It has all the instructions needed for beginners, but also contains instructions for different herbs, berries and a wide assortment of flowers. It also covers several 3-D projects, holiday projects, ideas for framing pictures and invitations, tags, and miniature plants. I refer back to it on a regular basis. Overall, an excellent choice and a wonderful addition to your library!

I borrowed this book from our local library in Rotorua,New Zealand. Just loved it so had to get my own copy. I am a beginner and find the book full of instructions and thoroughly enjoying the book and the art more and more. A Lot of fun!
