Reviews
Review   Quilter's Newsletter Magazine - May 1, 2007
"Nancy Johnson-Srebro, Ruth B. McDowell, Alex Anderson, Sharyn Craig, and Carol Doak provide expert tips on every aspect of quiltmaking, including workspace set-up, equipment, curved piecing, quilt design, and paper piecing."

Review   Quilter's World - June 1, 2007
"If you are looking for an expert's opinion or have a question about a quilting technique, this handy little book is filled with tidbits of wisdom. The topics covered include rotary cutting, machine piecing, piecing curved seams, paper piecing and more.

The quilting experts included in the book are all well-known names--Alex Anderson, Sharyn Craig, Carol Doak, Nancy Johnson-Srebro and Ruth B. McDowell. Each one of these experts has developed a reputation in the quilting world.

The hints are short. Some have illustrations to help make the information easier to visualize. This book won't replace an in-depth instruction book about quilting or specific techniques, but it is a handy tool to keep close by your sewing machine for use when you need a quick tip."

Review   Australian Quilters Companion - May 1, 2007
"An essential tool for any quilter! This handy-size spiral-bound book is packed with must-have information including rotary cutting, foundation piecing, working with colour, machine piecing, setting your blocks, fabric requirements and more."
