Title: Show Me How to Machine Quilt: A Fun, No-Mark Approach Author: Sandbach, Kathy Released: 2002-01-01 Publisher: C&T Publishing - Lafayette, CA ISBN: 9781571201287 Format: Paperback Category: Crafts, Hobbies & Home Last Updated: 2018-06-17 Rating: -1 Pages: 64 Description: Take the frustration out of machine quilting and make it fast, fun, and productive. 5 complete quilt projects and dozens of freehand designs. Editorial Reviews From Library Journal Long the object of derision by traditional hand-quilters, machine quilting has finally come into its own as an opportunity for expressing creativity in quilting. Freehand quilting involves quilting by machine, using the needle like a pencil to sketch designs as one quilts. Here, Sandbach emphasizes the importance of working with the right tools and uses five simple quilted projects to illustrate the types of free machine quilting appropriate for different types of quilts. A good selection of practice designs makes it easy to master the technique before embarking on a large project. As helpful as this book is, one can't deny that this is one technique better taught in a hands-on workshop. Nevertheless, for those not able to learn the technique firsthand, this is an excellent self-teaching aid. Recommended for public library quilting collections.
