"Wish List: Great Gifts for Quilters
Learn the secrets to making realistic landscape quilts by watching Joyce Becker as she guides you step-by-step through the process. Starting with choosing materials and selecting your subjects, you'll learn how to create your own unique scene, including detailed sections on composing the quilt, machine embroidery, using fabric paints, embellishing, and quilting. With over 90 minutes of instruction, it's like taking a private class with Joyce, but best of all you can watch it as many times as you wish, so you'll be sure not to miss anything!"
Review About.com - August 1, 2008
"There's nothing quite as easy to understand as a visual guide that shows a quilting teacher at work. That's what you'll see in Joyce Becker's landscapes DVD. She begins with a basic overview of landscape quilts, and then progresses forward to show you how to build a quilt, step-by-step.
Joyce discusses fabric and materials selection, showing us some of her favorite products and illustrating how to use them. She moves forward to explain how to prepare a canvas and cut the elements of your quilt. You'll watch Joyce machine baste shapes to the canvas and then move on to the use of threads, inks and paints in landscape quilts.
The tips and techniques that Joyce Becker included in the DVD made me aware that I can do this. That realization came early in the program and was reinforced as she moved forward to explain how to easily handle the tasks that I would have labeled difficult before watching the DVD.
If you want to try a landscape quilt, but felt overwhelmed by the thought of learning a mass of new skills, this DVD will change your mind. Joyce shows us that anyone can make a landscape quilt--no art background or experienced required."
