I love designing quilts and creating gardens. In this book I am able to share both with you.
Do you feel daunted by hand appliqué? This book is here to help you!
Lots of step-by-step photographs and diagrams will help you master needle-turning techniques. Having taught many hundreds of students over the years my aim is to give lots of help and encouragement to guide you through the basics. You too can achieve perfect points and invisible stitches.
* The book includes 13 projects ranging from small projects to get you started to more advanced ones.
* Some of the block designs are compatible in size with my block patterns so you can mix and match to creat your own special appliqué quilt.
* I love dimensional techniques so just had to include a section featuring some of my favourite techniques including foxgloves and raspberries. Be prepared to amaze your friends!
* All the projects include full-size patterns.
* There are also lots of hints for finishing off your projects - setting blocks, adding borders and quilting ideas.
And if you prefer to appliqué your designs by machine, the designs can still be used to make beautiful quilts.

I wanted to let you know personally how much I love your new book. I ordered one for myself. When it arrived I knew it was one that I had to purchase as a gift for my applique budddy. We both have spend many an hour just reading your book, both for the technique tips and the patterns. It has become my favorite book. Just wanted to let you know.
