About the Author

Sue Linker moved from the plains of eastern Colorado to the Pacific Northwest more than 20 years ago, and that's when she discovered quilts and quilters. She is now dedicated to both, teaching classes and workshops for guilds and quilt shops throughout Washington and Oregon. Sue specializes in hand quilting and is most interested in having students use her instructions and patterns in their own way. "The role I like best," she says, "is that of facilitator and cheerleader."

This review is from: Sunbonnet Sue: All Through the Year (Paperback)

In addition providing many patterns for Sues and Sams and possible variations, this book provides clear directions for needle turned applique. This applique method produces incredible results and is not really that hard once you get the hang of it. Sue Linker is an expert applique artist and her work is just stunning. The directions in this book tell how she does it!

5.0 out of 5 stars A worthwhile present, September 9, 2000

By 

Alan Tan Khiok Chun (Kuching, Sarawak Malaysia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sunbonnet Sue: All Through the Year (Paperback)

It may not be that appropriate to say I have purchased a good book, but I reckon it is a worthwhile present. My wife got it for her 43rd brithday. She found that she could make a good start with the book and with the help from her friends who were into quilting, she made her first project with patterns from this book. I am proud and happy to have purchased it for her. She had also passed it around and many of her friends had found great inspiration with it. I strongly recommend others who like to make a start or get ideas to have this book.
