Excerpted from a recent email:
I have started several different applique projects, only to get stymied from a lack of concise instructions, then up up quitting on the project, UNTIL I ordered one of your books!!! I find your instructions to be so complete, and without ever having taken an applique class, I now have 10 blocks finished from you Spring Spectacular quilt, and am thrilled with the outcome.
I sing your praises to all my friends, and have ordered many books for them. Just thought I'd pass on to you my praises and gratitude! I now have at least 5 of your books.
Thank you,
Karen M.
Thank you, Karen, for your kind words! They made us so happy we wanted to share what you wrote!
