I am teaching a class of young women at my church how to quilt. Many of them have never used a sewing machine. This book gives the very basics of the sewing machine and accessories, quilting supplies needed, fabric and batting information and how to select the colors for projects with splendid color photos. All of the projects are items that can be used in your home: hot pad, nine-patch pillow, checkboard placemats, etc. Each project teaches several new skills with excellent directions. I wish I owned this book when I started quilting 10 years ago. If you ever wanted to learn to quilt, know someone who is interested in quilting or want an good reference book, I highly recommend this book.

This book is great for the person who is starting to quilt. It gives a variety of easy quilt projects that are fun and quick to make. The projects are all rotary cut so no need for templates! This book is a must!

This book has a lot of useful information and illustrations, but as far as the projects go, I only found one that I really wanted to make. The others consist of: placemats, a sewing machine cover, a wall hanging, etc. I was hoping it would have more actual blanket-size quilt projects, but I guess with it being a book for beginners they thought it best to start small. Still, the only reason I use this book is to refer back to information and illustrations.

This was one of the first books I bought for quilting. I have really no sewing or quilting experience and I enjoyed it. It is very informative and easy to read. I am about to tackle the placemats and the instructions and pictures will be a great help. I think this is a great book for a beginner like myself!

This was exactly what I wanted and needed to get started. It has great detail, step by step with photos to help. It couldn't be better. If you are a construction paper and crayons kind of person when it comes to starting something, this is the book you should have to get started with quilting. I can't wait to make a few of the ideas for christmas presents-great practice.

This is a very nice book and shows you many projects that you can tackle and finish even if you are a beginner.
It is with nice and clear instructions and is certainly a book to have.

I wanted to do some quilting and got this book out of the library. After renewing it twice, I decided to buy it, since I liked it so much.

I have never quilted before, but this book is full of projects that an absolute beginner can pick up in a short time. The book starts out by explaining the basics of the sewing machine, fabric selection, how much fabric to buy, detailed explanations with many shortcuts to make your project easier. It's fun, easy, and good reading. Really recommend this book for new and also more experienced quilters.
