Make It Simpler Paper Piecing - Anita Solomon
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
After a frustrating, actually terrible experience with a paper-pieced quilt top - swore off paper piecing - - UNTIL I saw Anita's technique on Simply Quilts - - I now own two of her books and am anxious to try paperpiecing again. Very talented lady!
Nice addition to my library
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This is a nice addition to my quilt book library. LOTS of VERY detailed instructions to learn her paper piecing technique. My only issue with this book is the instructions are 100% for HER patterns & techniques. I'm just beginning paper peicing & I don't think I'll be able to adapt her techniques to my other patterns...I'll have to concentrate on instructions to attempt this. Or better yet, I think I'll find a basic paper piecing book. :)
Motivating

I found the book to be very inspiring, helpful, and best of all Motivating.
Perfect intersections are now simple!

I had never been a huge fan of paper piecing before. It seemed silly to cut "hunks" of fabric and sew them to paper, trim them up and then have to pin and fuss to get the segments to end up just right. The cutting was wasteful, the pins made lumps and the matching...aargh! All those problems are addressed with this new method of paper piecing. I teach quilting and have taught three classes now using this book. Students of all levels are able to successfully compete their projects. Be warned, however, that this book is available in two sizes depending upon the edition. For accurate templates and patterns be sure you are purchasing the 9" wide edition.
Amazing New Technique
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Traditional paper-piecers and never-before paper-piecers alike would find this book easy to follow and fun! This new technique of folding and sewing the entirety of one block on ONE piece of paper is wonderful. All the points match and there's no pinning and therefore no bumps involved. The book has great pictures that illustrate all of the techniques, as well as sample blocks and quilts throughout so you can see what the finished product will look like. The contents has color photos of the blocks so that you don't need to flip through the whole book to find what you are looking for. The blocks in the book are both great old standards and refreshing new interpretations. It's so easy to photocopy the patterns onto paper and be ready to sew! I love the see-thru Vellum paper, too.
