"Fast Polymer Clay" is a book that I would recommend to all beginners. The first third of the book shows basic techniques for working with polymer clay. The instructions are simple and there plenty of pictures for each technique. The rest of the book is devoted to small, quick projects - projects that a beginner can do in an afternoon. They include some pieces of simple jewelry, little figures of people and animals, cards, fridge magnets, etc. Be aware that the projects are mostly cute and whimsical. Those with a taste for "sophisticated" crafts should look elsewhere for projects. I could only see one thing that would have made this book better - a discussion of the merits of various brands of clay. However, that omission doesn't really detract from the techniques presented. Overall, I would say that the book is very well done and I wouldn't hesitate to give it to a complete beginner!

Sue Heaser has done it again. This is a great book for anyone that works with polymer clay. The whole book is full of step-by-step instructions (with tons of color photos) for many small fast projects. The projects are whimsical in nature, but the information is very helpful. I've been working with and selling clay items for over 20 years and I found this book a wonderful addition to my collection of polymer clay books. I can't wait to see what Sue Heaser comes up with next.

This book is great. Sculpting is a great hobby and for some a great profession, but it can be very time consuming. This book takes the techniques that we all use and shows how to get the same result with a faster, more efficient way of doing it.
A must have for any clay artist.

I'm totally new to polymer clay, and I'm sure beginners are the group that Heaser had in mind when she put this fantastic collection together. It's probably one of the few books I'll need to get started. In truth, none of the projects included are very "sophisticated" (as I read in another review), but that doesn't seem to have been the author's intent. All the projects are great springboards for ideas.

i'm new to the polymer clay craft. this book has many simple things to get a person started. good tips on how to. step by step instructions have a picture to go with each step.

I am new at doing clay projects and this book really help me get started. The author talks about the materials and equipment you need and the basic techniques. There are lots of projects to make and she explains the procedures very well. I like this book so much that I even ordered one of her other books "Polymer Clay Techniques Book," and it is in the process of being mailed to me. Thanks Sue Heaser for a Great Book.
