This new edition updates the original techniques and embraces the current developments of the craft. Its place on that bookshelf is assured for many years to come." - Lynne Edwards MBE, quiltmaker and teacher "A definitive choice for the beginner and one worth investigating for a more experienced quilter" - British Patchwork & Quilting "This is an amazing book for those embarking on a quilting journey and even for seasoned quilters. The illustrations and directions are easy to understand and great for the visual learner. As a quilting teacher I would highly recommend this book. The number of techniques alone will keep the reader up at night! Rock on Linda Seward!" - Kim Rudd, quiltmaker and teacher "Linda Seward's guide has always been my go-to bible for every question I have about quilting. I didn't think a new edition could be any better, but this refresh is even more inspiring. Not only has she updated technical aspects (adding sections on fusible web applique and free-motion quilting, for example), she has chosen spectacular recent quilts to illustrate the text. While marvelling over them, I was reminded that quilting is an ever-evolving art that brings joy and satisfaction. Linda's book captures that perfectly, and leads us through how to do it ourselves." - Tracy Chevalier, novelist and quiltmaker
