3.0 out of 5 stars The cover is the book, January 24, 2008
This book is good as far as it goes. It covers selection of photos, size, printing onto fabric sheets, tiling, etc. competently and simply. The pages are well laid out, with images of the computer screens and step by step instructions. When you have read this book, you should be able to manipulate your photos, print them, and stitch them into quilts or book covers or postcards.

Where it falls down slightly, is that it doesn't know whether the reader is computer literate and/or sewing literate. For me it didn't quite explain enough about the computer side, and yet showed photos of a sewing machine, and sewing needles, as if we didn't all know what they look like!

One bonus is that you get a 30 day tryout version of Photoshop elements 5, which is the program they recommend and refer to.

Its limitations also extend to the works of the authors shown - almost all flower centres. A greater balance of subject types and a few more photos of variations in effect options for the same subject, would have made this a 5 star book.
