More About the Author
Alex Anderson's love affair with quiltmaking began in 1978, when she completed her Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt as part of her work toward a degree in art at San Francisco State University. Over the years, her focus has rested on understanding fabric relationships and on an intense appreciation for traditional quilting surface design and star quilts. Alex's mission is to educate, inspire, entertain, and grow today's quilting community. With this mission in mind, she has had the privilege and pleasure of ushering tens of thousands of new people into the world of quilting. For eleven years, she hosted television's premier quilt show, Simply Quilts, and she is currently the co-host and an executive producer of The Quilt Show with Ricky Tims (www.thequiltshow.com), an interactive website that features full production videos and is connecting quilters worldwide. When Alex is not traveling, she resides in Northern California with her husband and a new kitty, and daily faces the challenges of feeding various forms of wildlife in her backyard.

This review is from: Rotary Cutting with Alex Anderson: Tips, Techniques and Projects (Quilting Basics) (Paperback)
I am a relatively new quilter, and left-handed to boot. Most other quilting books I've read have illustrations to demonstrate cutting techniques, but the pictures feature the right hand only! Alex, being a lefty herself, thoughtfully includes rotary cutting illustrations for both the right AND left-handed among us. It really helped me with my cutting! I highly recommend it for new quilters and lefty quilters alike. :)
