Asian Elegance: Quilting With Japanese Fabrics and More (That Patchwork Place) [Paperback] Review

Kitty Pippen broke new ground with her first book, Quilting with Japanese Fabrics, and I consider it a "must have book" for anyone with more than a passing interest in Japanese fabrics.Ms. Pippen and her daughter, Sylvia, have pushed the boundaries further with this book, Asian Elegance, which incorporates polynesian and Japanese fabrics, design elements and ideas.Well done Pippens!

Since her first book, many of the Japanese fabrics that were so readily available are rare. Many traditional Japanese fabric makers are no longer manufacturing, or have modernized or moved to other countries.The quilts in the new book reflect some of these changes.Fabrics are more contemporary, embrace polynesian elements, and generallyare available at most quilt and fabric stores or from resources listed in the book.All in all, this is a book to inspire, and grow your ideas.The elements of graceful design are timeless.It's worth the investment.

A Slice of Christmas from Piece O'Cake Designs [Paperback] Review

This is a beautiful book about appliqueing and their designs for Christmas.They cover everything from quilts, wall hangings to table runners, stockings and Christmas tree rounds.You can mix and match the ideas here and make everything you need for Christmas.
The nice parts are that the directions are complete for both hand piecing and machine (called fusible in the book) sewing & that most of the designs require small amounts (1/2 yard; 5/8 yard there) of fabric so if you have leftovers you can find places to use them here.Also nice is the ability to copy the designs for your own use.A nice present in itself.
The downside?You should be near a copier and have sharp scissors.
All in all, a great way to get into the Christmas spirit.It's a real joy to view and look at.I wish some of the designs were shown bigger in colour but it's a minor quibble.

Fantastic Fabric Folding: Innovative Quilting Projects [Paperback] Review

Compared to many quilting books, this one is easy to use and offers fresh ideas.It provides detailed step-by-step instructions with photographs.There are photos on almost every page--this makes the book more stimulatingthan many quilting books that rely on black and white diagrams anddrawings.In addition to the table of contents, the book offers a usefulindex and bibliography. With this book, even people who have never doneorigami (or used folding techniques) can add this method to their quilting.However, this may not be the book for those who want to make quilts thatlook traditionally Japanese.The book's kimono designs are very Japaneselooking, but the quilting arrangements are not typically Japanese. Forthose interested in making authentically Japanese looking quilts, I wouldrecommend "Honoring the Seasons" (1996) by Takako Onoyama. Still,"Fantastic Fabric Folding" is a great book for those who wouldlike to add some Japanese flavor and new designs to their quilts.

At Piece with Time: A Woman's Journey Stitched in Cloth [Paperback] Review

If I was asked which book I would recommend as a great Christmas gift for a quilter, I would not hesitate to recommend the book titled At Peace with Time - a Woman's Journey Stitched in Cloth, written by Kristin C. Steiner & Diane C. Frankenberger. This absolutely beautiful book is published by C & T Publishing and is available at any good bookshop. (See link below)

The one thing that shines from the beginning to end in this book is its essential highlighting of the goodness of the human spirit, the wonderful fellowship of fellow stitchers that we enjoy, all tied up with a pinch of wisdom and a sprinkle of words from the gospels, and the awesome watercolors and drawings by Diane C. Frankenberger.

If you never make the quilt, blocks or other goodies displayed in this book, it is such a wonderful manuscript to read, that you will feel like you've been stitching. I was given this book when "doing time" in hospital. It was the most wonderful dose of medicine, every time I picked it up, I felt fully satisfied that I had enjoyed a quilting moment.

Apart from the full instructions for making their lovely quilt of pieced and appliquéd blocks, the book also includes instructions for creating a Travel Journal, A traveling Sewing Kit, a lovely baby quilt titled Ring Around the Rosy, a doll and doll quilt, a gorgeous pillow with a title of Profound Pillow and as a bonus, a number of yummy recipes and lots of sayings, quotes and simply inspiring words.

The Authors Kristin C. Steiner and Diane C. Frankenberger have given a great deal of thought to the layout of the book, keeping its integrity of providing simple pleasure throughout the whole book. The illustrations are extremely clear and concise and easy to understand. The cutting instructions are incredibly simply described, no chance of getting the wrong message here.

As mentioned previously, this is not necessarily a book that only a "doer" will enjoy. All of us go through cycles of getting quilting done, and then not getting quilting done. Sometimes our heart isn't in its right phase, or the family is demanding more of our time.

This book is a perfect solution to the "don't have time to stitch" syndrome that we all suffer from time to time. A few minutes spent pouring over this book; will give you the feeling of having stitched. I try to use the same theory when on a diet. I spend a bit of time looking through a recipe book with the hope that I'll feel like I've eaten!! (I wish!!). Go and have a look at this delightful creation. It's one of my all time favourites.

For the Birds: Paper-Pieced Birdhouses and Bird Feeders [Paperback] Review

Just try choosing which project to do FIRST - they're all so pretty!!
If I'm counting correctly, there are 10 birdhouse designs, 7 bird feeders, and 5 filler blocks.All blocks are shown with FULL color photographs, and the birdhouse/feeder blocks are shown as completed projects, with borders/sashing/binding, so you get great finishing ideas, and great color suggestions.
The patterns each include a color photograph, a chart with the fabric key, sewing order, and suggestions for block embellishments.The pattern itself is full size, but does not include the seam allowances, nor are the multi-piece patterns already separated for you.The author has used dashed lines to delineate the different pieces in the multi-piece patterns (in comparison to other books just showing BOLD lines, which are hard to differentiate from the other pattern lines - at least - for ME).The individual sections of each pattern are clearly labelled with the section number and the fabric key.If you have NOT done paper piecing before, there is a large information section at the front with LOTS of instructions and drawings - even people experienced with paper piecing will find these instructions helpful!
In addition to the 20+ block designs, you will find 6 "Individual Block Wall Hangings" - with full color pictures, clear and detailed instructions with drawings - even a Christmas design!!
My hat is off to Jaynette Huff - what a fabulous book :).(But please, consider putting block sizes and seam allowances on your patterns, lol).

The book has sections on color blending, free-form stems and branches, and a unique way of stitching sharp points. There's a gorgeous gallery of quilts and 12 floral blocks with step-by-step instructions and photos. You'll find anemone, camellia, iris, lady's slipper, pansies, sweet peas, and more!

Petal By Petal - Appli-Bond Flowers: Love to Quilt Series [Illustrated] [Paperback] Review

A very unique and interesting method of applique'. This allows me to do more than just fabric on top of base fabric and is a lot more interesting. A marvelous book with new ideas.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Petal By Petal - Appli-Bond Flowers: Love to Quilt Series [Paperback]

Product Description:
Create realistic 3-D flowers using award-winning quilter Joan Shay's new innovative technique, Appli-bond. Now construct flowers, with their many intricate petals, that you thought too difficult to make before. Appli-bond is the fusing of two layers of fabric, eliminating the need to finish the edges. A very realistic and sophisticated flower is the result. Included among these are the hydrangea, geranium, African violet, and lilac. Also, learn how to construct whole flower units using Joan's Fleece Foundation Piecing method. With Fleece Foundation Piecing, the flower unit is constructed before it is appliqued to the background fabric. Place flowers as illustrated or design your own arrangement with ease. Instructions are included, using this technique, for constructing the poppy, iris, amaryllis, and more. AUTHORBIO: Joan, who was taught to sew on a Singer treadle machine by her grandmother, has been a quilter for many years. She has her own pattern company, Petal Play, which she operates from her home in Massachusetts. In addition, she has taught and lectured extensively throughout the country. She has appeared on television on the PBS show "Quilting from the Heartland" with Sharlene Jorgenson, and on the HGTV program "Simply Quilts" with Alex Anderson. REVIEW: I am not sure why 3-D applique created with fusibles is traditional. Perhaps the reference is to the background blocks in the 11 quilts. These serve to set off the 11 flowers which could easily be combined in different ways or on other backgrounds. The flowers are lovely and utilize detailed petals, beaded stamens and other realistic touches. They include dandelion, magnolia, water lily, coneflower and Christmas cactus. The instructions appear complete and well illustrated.

Baskets to Applique [Paperback] Review

I find that the designs themselves are fine, and presented in such a way that they can be added to or adjusted/changed.What I think is impressive about this book are the instructions.The instructions on how to use the Clover bias strip maker (for stems, etc) made me proficient, something the instructions on the product itself did not do.They present options for applique methods and the how-tos for each method.I was impressed with the clarity and usability of this book.

A Quilter's Diary: Written in Stitches (That Patchwork Place) [Paperback] Review

As with all of Mimi Dietrich's books, 'A Quilter's Diary' is an attractive and well presented volume. The central concept of the book is the idea of making a 'quilt diary' about yourself or someone else - choosing quilt blocks whose names or patterns represent important mile stones in your life.There are photos of Mimi's own diary quilt and the quilts of some of her students as well as the patterns for 150 patchwork and applique blocks arranged according to various themes such as childhood, parents, true love, home, career and so on. The only reason I haven't given the book five stars is because 150 blocks don't really provide enough choice for a personal quilt, and readers will have to look further at other quilt block books - to be fair, there is a list of possibilites in the bibliography at the end, but it would have been nice to see more blocks presented as well as they are here.
