Review: You too can applique! - This is an excellent book for the novice but has enough advanced stuff to make it interesting for those with experience. The author, Janet Pittman, covers the various types of hand and machine applique, the equipment and supplies you need, and gives several inspirational projects. The diagrams and photoqraphs are clear and almost self-explanatory. The instructions are also clear with lots of helpful tips which are highlighted for easy reference. The author explains so many ways of applique that I believe any sewer could find a method that they enjoy. A lot of thought has obviously gone into the presentation of the information - for instance the fonts used are easily legible and the book has an interior spinal binding, meaning that it lays flat when open. I had borrowed this book from a friend before I bought it. Having read it, I wanted to keep it! Review: Brilliant - This book is one of the best books that I have read so far. Lots of ideas and easy to understand. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 3,163,281 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 347 in Patchwork & Quiltmaking | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 113 Reviews | ## Images ![Applique: The Basics & Beyond: The Complete Guide to Successful Machine and Hand Techniques with Dozens of Designs to Mix and Match (Landauer Publishing) 8 Projects, 550 Photos, & Full-Size Patterns - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/819FdDfESvL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You too can applique! *by A***E on 10 February 2009* This is an excellent book for the novice but has enough advanced stuff to make it interesting for those with experience.
