Birds 'n Roses: Applique Masterpiece Series [Bargain Price] [Paperback] Review

Real flowers and birds from an award-winning quilt are presented in a survey of how a masterpiece was created - and how any applique method can duplicate it. Full-sized patterns are provided for all elements of the quilt, providing keys to success not just for reproducing this winner, but for blending into independent projects. It's these elements which make BIRDS N ROSES by needlecraft expert Margaret Docherty an exceptional pick for any experienced quilter who likes to use applique as more of a central theme than a side embellishment: Personal, professional, and community library libraries simply must have this one if their needlecraft reference collections are to be considered comprehensive or complete.
