I thought I was selecting a book on quilt-making, but this is actually exactly what the title states: a book on quilting. It covers hand versus machine; a variety of fabrics; the pluses and minuses of various batting options; tools; workstations; stitches; techniques; ergonomics; and troubleshooting. The illustrations are clear (even on my small Kindle screen). There are suggestions for finding design inspiration and for altering sewing machine feet to make them more user friendly. This is a book that will prove useful over the years as a refresher, an inspiration or a solution.

Pages of helpful advice for the new and intermediate quilters. The only book I've ever seen to show multiple ways to deal with the quilt bulk while feeding it under the foot!

I'm not a quilter, but I'm looking into sewing. This book had tips even I could use.
