So Many Possibilities!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Strips 'n Curves: A New Spin on Strip Piecing (Paperback)
I ordered this book for a class and am very excited with all of the possibilities for fabric and patterns. Your imagination will go wild with the color selections and designs. I haven't sewn curves for quite some time and these templates made it very easy to accomplish. Directions are explicit and I have used fabrics in my stash that I never thought would go into a quilt. I will definitely make more than one of these. Go for it. Such fun and yours will be an original.

Strips and Curves,
By A Customer
This review is from: Strips 'n Curves: A New Spin on Strip Piecing (Paperback)
An excellent book. The pictures and explanations of this quilting technique were very well written, and easily understandable. The end result was a quilt that looked very complicated but in reality was easy to make. I would highly recommend this book to any quilter.

WOW WOW WOW!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Strips 'n Curves: A New Spin on Strip Piecing (Paperback)
After I opened the package and thumbed through the first few pages, I just had to hurry and get to my sewing room to start one of these fabulous quilts! I could hardly quit until it was finished! It turned out just great, and I've received lots of compliments. I seldom make more than one quilt from a pattern, but I'm going to make more of these -- the imagination goes wild, thinking of the combinations you can make. Get this book!
