Compiled and organized by needlecraft expert Jodie Davis (with the assistance of her step-mother Jayne Davis, who is a life-time practitioner of the needle arts), "Quilting With Jodie In Cotton Country" offers sixteen quilting and home-decorating projects that even the most novice needlecrafter can accomplish in their own sewing room. This primer on quilting skills includes quick-sew techniques such as rotary cutting, strip piecing, fusing, raw-edge applique, curve-and-pleat piecing, cut-and-fuse applique, the sew-turn-stuff applique dimension technique, and more. Enhanced with the inclusion of period photographs, simple recipes, history notes, anecdotes, mottos, and a song, "Quilting With Jodie In Cotton Country" is a fun and informative "how to" resource for developing quilting skills and techniques, making it strongly recommended for personal and community library Quilting & Needlecraft instructional reference collections.

I cannot tell you how much I love this book. I have read it twice from cover to cover. Not only does it have great projects but it has great history, photos and so much information about cotton and other things that quilters will love. I cannot recommend it high enough.

Thank You Jodie!!!!!!

I have about 200 quilting books and I must put this one at the top of my list of "must haves".

Googled this book after seeing the mules on the cover. The price was incredibly cheap and it was exaxctly what I wanted.

The book is as advertised. Good stories about cotton and the patterns are clear and well written.
