The Best I've Seen

This book is by far the best beginning quilting book I have ever seen. It contains all the basic information needed to get started quilting. Everything is presented in a clear, concise, and logical manner. The illustrations are excellent. I am helping three people learn to quilt. I ordered a copy of this book for each of them, and they are so pleased with it and have found it etremely helpful.

A 'must' for any newcomer to the quilting world.

Quilters just starting out and libraries catering to them will welcome the lay-flat binding and easy instructions of Learning to Quilt with Jiffy Quilts, a guide especially designed for beginners. From instructions on basic parts of a quilt - something omitted in many quilting beginner's guides - to tips on choosing and pairing fabrics, colors, values, cutting, and sewing them together, this is a 'must' for any newcomer to the quilting world.
