Reviews / Votes
December 2014Angela Walters is a prolific writer on free-motion embroidery and her books are always worth a
mention being well explained, illustrated and executed. In her latest book, she looks specifically
at the machine embroidery of quilted shapes. Here there are squares, triangles, circles,
diamonds, hexagons, negative space and borders and they are all great designs, ready to
combat 'quilter's amnesia' for those times where you look at a shape and cannot think of the
best way to quilt it.
The author provides clear and simple instructions which are useful in enabling some complex
patterns to be broken down into lines and stages. Now, if only she could teach me how to sew
as exquisitely as she does, I'd be laughing! * Workshop On The Web *
