All of
the projects in this book are inspired by flowers and are
a great way to learn quilting without having to buy a lot
of fabric. These are all small items, and a fun way of recycling
leftovers from larger projects.
There are twenty projects in here and yes, this book is suitable
for beginners. More experienced quilters will also find much
in here to please, particularly because there are none of
the large and challenging projects normally found in books
on quilting. Instead there are greetings cards, bags, bunting,
cushions, tree decorations, a phone case and, of course, a
quilt, but a mini one. The introduction states that once you
have made a few of the items in here you will be almost ready
to tackle a full-sized project. You can learn the stitches
and what you need to own in order to start quilting (both
hand and machine), which fortunately is not much if you already
sew. Each project features a whole page photograph, templates
and written instructions as well as a list of what you need,
helpfully including a list of all the tools. This is a great
little book for a beginner as it isnlt daunting, and as you
make up the simple and useful items it will teach you most
of the basics of quilting.
