Even if you've never tried paper piecing before, you'll want to have this book. It takes paper piecing to a whole new level, and simplifies the process. For experienced piecers, you'll be amazed at how much faster you can make stunning blocks with Peggy's revolutionary method.

The book is exceptionally well-illustrated. Step-by-step photos walk you through the technique and explain it so clearly that it's the next best thing to taking a workshop with Peggy herself.

You are sure to find more than one quilt you'll want to make from the project section, and the gallery of quilts will inspire you with plenty of ideas. Even though they look complex, the projects are still easy to make, even for beginners.

Definitely a book every quilter should have!

I've been quilting for several years and had been discouraged when I tried paper foundation piecing because my brain just doesn't work that way. This book changed all that. The stars are astonishing and they're very easy to do. I've bought many quilting books and this is, without a doubt, the very best. I hope she writes another soon!

I am new to quilting but I have been sewing for years. I have been drawn to Paper Piecing since the beginning. Peggy Martin makes it easy. I have several books about paper piecing, but this lady knows her stuff and cuts right through the confusion. I also hope she writes more books; she difinitly has a repeat customer in me.

I have always wanted to paper piece, but it seemed daunting. I bought this book and it helped immenseley. The instructions were easy to understand and follow. The strip piecing speeds up the process. The only downfall is that you do waste more fabric than with other processes. However, I combined this method with regular paper piecing (I also bought the book "Show Me How To Paper Piece) and it worked beautifully. Together these books made it easy for a beginner paper piecer and I successfully created a queen size quilt for my brother!

Wonderful foundation paper piecing patterns. Great instructions for quick-strip paper piecing. Great book. . .easy to understand new techniques for paper piecing! It's a KEEPER!

The book is very informative for a beginner or more experienced artisan. I found exactly what I was looking for. The seller sent the book to me in record time and was in better condition than expected---Thank you :)

Great book, easy to understand. My compass came out great!

I downloaded the sample through kindle hoping to enjoy it in color on my iPad, but it was not put in e-format in color. Some books lose nothing for lack of color, but this one does, in my opinion. I wish the rating system had a separate section for format; this is probably an excellent book, but not in kindle format.

A great "how to" quilting book, thankfully, I was able to get this from someone who had cherished it earlier in print.
