Nov 12 Does your sewing machine have a mind of its very own when
you try to free-motion quilt? Are you always breaking needles? You
need this book. It will help you achieve professional results in no
time. Natalia presents over 50 visual tutorials and there are 6
modern quilts to try out your new found skills. I was impressed by
the content of this fabulous quilt book. It starts with the basics
- equipment, fabrics, thread tension, sampling. I love the way this
book does not assume you know anything - it starts with straight
line quilting and squaring up. The instructions are easy to follow,
with excellent photos and great tips. Each tutorial builds your
skills. Sections include all-over, background, borders and custom
quilting. Each design has several patterns you'll want to get
familiar with. There's also a great section for quilting on
applique. The six quilt projects are contemporary and fun. There's
also information on binding. Right at the back, there are full size
patterns for free-motion quilting, which really made this book a
must for me. Highly recommended to improve your free-motion
quilting skills.
