Perfect Hand Quilting

Book & DVD Information

If you learn visually the added bonus of the DVD is a great value. And you have the best of both worlds a book reference and the video on DVD.

This book is about healthy quilting. It is about perfect hand quilting without the pains that so many quilters experience. The perfect stitch is not the only goal but rather a natural outcome of healthy quilting. Pain-free quilting is essential.

It doesn't make any difference who you are, a beginner or experienced quilter, an amateur or professional. This book introduces a new thimble design, a new hand quilting technique, a new way of teaching/learning and a new challenge to many old hand quilting rules.
