Hand quilting is much more than a running stitch holding a quilt's three
layers together; it is a refined technique that becomes an art form - it gives
us a glimpse into history and it can document our lives. Regardless of whether
you are a beginning or an advanced quilter, the practice and patience required
for learning the technique of hand quilting will be rewarded with many hours of
personal satisfaction and the great sense of accomplishment when seeing your
finished quilt. This completely updated revised edition of one of the most important hand
quilting books ever published includes more than 100 all new color photographs
and tips from quilting pros. It also contains a special section on "How to
Quilt This Quilt," featuring inspirational traditional and contemporary quilts.
As an added bonus, world-renown authors Diana Leone and Cindy Walter have tested
the latest tools and notions currently available, like needles, threads, hoops,
and batting, to help you make the best choice for your quilting needs.
- Tried-and-true techniques to help you create even stitches
