Book Reviews of Pieced Borders: The Complete Resource
Book Review: If I Had Only ONE Quilting Book
Summary: 5 Stars
Written by two "charter members" of the modern quilt revival, Judy Martin, and Marsha McCloskey, this book has become the "Bible" for designing extraordinary borders. Not for beginners, you can really stretch your quilt designs by truly studying this book and doing the "homework" that it takes to figure out various pieced borders and adding "floater" borders in between them. I'm very fortunate to be in the Houston area where my good friend, Winnie Fleming, has developed two different classes based on this book. Winnie is a terrific teacher and she takes the "scariness" out of the math and walks the student right through the process of making a beautiful "borders quilt" with a center block as a medallion. If I could have just ONE quilting book, this is IT!
