80 original continuous-line designs for hand or machine quilting pack in a fine survey for any quilter's collection. Tips on machine quilting and marking accompany patterns that include a photo of the design stitched on fabric. Black and white patterns provide all the keys necessary to produce continuous-line quilting results.Midwest Book Review (1/1/11) -- Professional Quilter Online, 11/11/10 Review Source: The Professional Quilter OnlineReview Date: 5/1/11Review Content:Many of the quilting design books on the market specialize in designs for the longarm quilter. Here is one written also with the domestic machine quilter in mind. Hari Walner, IAPQ Professional Quilt Teacher of the Year for 2006, starts with tips that will make free-motion quilting easier and then offers 80 original continuous line designs. Each pattern includes a photo of the design stitched on fabric, a line drawing to trace and a directional diagram to show you how to stitch it. While the photo and the diagrams are on different pages, they are cross-referenced making it easy to look at the photos and then find the patterns. I was charmed by many of Hari's designs, including her Splendid Swan, Catnap and Nosegay. I loved the visual design index showing thumbnail sizes of each design, making it easy to find the perfect pattern for your quilt. You'll also appreciate the enlargement/reduction chart for scaling the design for your quilt.
