Fuse-and-Tell Journal Quilts: Create Your Story in Cloth [Paperback] Review

Fuse-and-Tell Journal Quilts: Create Your Story in Cloth [Paperback]Let me tell you everything this book is about, in just one sentence:Instead of sewing art quilts with a needle and thread, you can use fast2fuse or WonderUnder to hot fuse dyed fabric cut-outs onto your base cloth.There, that's it.That is really all this book has to say!

It is very product specific (she uses brand names only, not general temrs) and it's also very short at 63 pages.The author also invents her own cutesey terms like "shape shifting" and "random acts of fusing" when a more explanatory, technical term would have made her instructions much more clear.Since the one and only technique in this book (as I stated in the paragraph above) is quite short and uncomplicated, the rest of the book is full of the author's own fused art quilts and the stories behind them.She also tells you, step by step, how she made them.To me, this is unnessecary because it's obvious how she made them.She cut some shapes out of cloth and fused them onto her base fabric with fusible web...and that's it!That's the only technique explained in this book, and in my opinion you really don't need a book to tell you how to do that.

There isn't even any good info on composition or colors in this book.I'm afraid it was quite disappointing to me.
