Cindy takes you step by step through the process of creating more than you ever dreamed possible with little bits of fabric. I especially liked doing the "impressonistic" arts with the techniques I learned from this book.

Highly recommended!

Impressionistic sensations with fabric scraps, this is a very easy to understand book with great ideas, and lots of pictures. This fabric scrap/ snippet idea can be used for quilts, pictures, scrap books, and door decorations. It is easy for middle school age through seniors citizens. A great addition to my book shelf.

I discovered this book after watching the author on a sewing tv program. I really like the impressionist art style and thought what a great way to combine two art forms. However, in the tv show, she showed how to make flowers. They are NOT included this book. I did make the wreath that she discusses in the book and in one afternoon, I had a beautiful wallhanging. The step by step directions are great. Don't be intimitated by the samples she gives, just go for it!!

As an artist, but not a seamstress, I found this book to be very complete as far as instruction in this method of creating fabric pictures. I found the method to be very simple to create interesting, original pictures from scraps of material Having no previous experience with fusible web, I had no problem following the directions and creating enjoyable pictures to give as gifts and to sell. I was not interested in the quilting directions included, but think snippet sensations. is a marvelous new hobby anyone should be able to do with ease

I have had a heck of a time starting to quilt, as I am afraid of color selection, that is- until I bought this book! This is the most fun I've had in years! The designs are beautiful, fun, and belive it or not, EASY! I am just a beginner! You can complete a project in about a day! This book is fantastic! The other snippet book is wonderful too! If you don't buy these books, you are a crazy quilt!

After receiving this book, I read it cover to cover twice! I couldn't wait to get started. This is so much fun. The author explains every step thoroughly. There are a lot of pictures to help guide one as well. Once you get started on the technique, you can't stop. I love 'painting' with fabric. This author perfected the technique. Definitely worth buying.

I'd been dying to make the flying eagle that's on the back cover, but I had some difficulty with the instructions, which untilmately lead to a dud project. They weren't specific about which pieces NOT to add 1/4" to, as well as the sample progression photos were not all taken of the same project. I ended up with a flying torpedo/pidgeon/hot dog because I added 1/4" to the white head & tail. The rest of it was fine. Sigh.

The author explains in minute detail how to go about her technique. I am just finishing a landscape quilt I started upon finishing the cover-to-cover reading of her book. A must-have in any quilter's library.

Great product, fast delivery, this book will be given to a friend, who will enjoy the wonderful new technique, and discovering new things to do

Although I haven't had opportunity to actually try this technique, it looks like lots of fun........and much more "free" than some other types of artistry. Am looking forward to doing a fall wall hanging using this technique.
