If you're the kind of quilter that takes a design and looks for ways to implement it - this book is for you. Although it has a lot of design ideas and inspirations, it's main objective is to teach the reader/quilter techniques to achieve the designs we dream of. I bought it a trifle too late - when I was half way through a major quilt commision in which I needed exactly the techniques described in the book and found that I successfully reinvented the wheel. Still, it helped me a lot. Some of the techniques (especially for curved piecing) could be simplified - from experience. Otherwise, don't hesitate buying it. Pity it is out of print.

I bought this book quite a few years ago and have used the techniques described. If you are interested in working non traditionally this book has great ideas for piecing solutions. I use it as a great resource book.

This book is good for many things about paper-piecing. It is not quite what I expected, but still a good book for your collection. It does not have a lot of pictures as other paper-piecing books do, but written directions are clear.
