“If you are interested in exploring appliqué techniques - either because you're keen to broaden your repertoire and experiment with a variety of styles. - this book would be an excellent purchase. The techniques that are introduced and explained in some detail are needleturn, paper-basted and blanket stitching by hand, and by machine: blind hem stitching, free-motion stitching and blanket stitching. Each method is illustrated with clear photographs showing both left- and right-handed sewers. Instructions are also provided for seven appliqué quilt projects, including the one behind Alex on the cover.”
