Quilting 101: A beginners guide to quiltingReviewsI checked this out from the library to make my first quilted wall hanging. I loved it and I just bought it for myself 3 years later. It has all the basics from the types of sewing machine needles to all the basics of quilting. Great, great starter book. I purchased this book as a gift for a friend who has recently shown an interest in sewing and quilting. There are over 175 pages filled with valuable and easy to comprehend well thought out guides on how to learn to quilt. This book is perfect as it goes step by step- starting with the explaining how the sewing machine works, what tools you'll need, fabric selection and moves all the way on to step by step how to quilt. There are detailed lessons and the book ends with 16 projects- everything from making a Christmas stocking, a pillow, lap quilt and more! There are plenty of really great photos throughout the book and most importantly- to go a long with the instructions for the projects. You can't go wrong with this book if you know someone that would like to learn how to quilt- the book is for those who like to learn at home, and also compliments classes one might take. I just began quilting and have found this book very helpful. The instructions for each project are very detailed and are accompanied by a picture so you know exactly what to do. When a quilting term is used that a beginner may not be familiar with you are directed to a page which gives a full description. I would definitely recommend this book for a novice quilter. I never received the book, Quilting 101, which I ordered on September 9, 2009 from Kim Sherrill through Amazon.com. There is a claim pending on this order. Therefore, I review this item as the very lowest possible. Great book for the beginner quilter !! It's easy to understand the answers to many questions u have. Thanks !! Sherrie W.
