Reader Reviews
I love Jane Townsick. She is an amazing quilt teacher. I've been lucky enough to be able to go to the Applique Academy and experience her class. Before that I had two of her books. She has truly distilled the essence of her classes into book form. Even if you are a beginner and you take it slow - you can do it. It's essential to read the book a couple of times before even choosing fabric. But once you get to that point, you can truly create magic with your fabric, needle, thread and the assistance of Jane's wonderful book. If you are close to Oley, PA I think that she teaches year round there too. It's worth the trip to go to Ladyfingers Fabric store and spend one day with her expertise if you can't make it to the Applique Academy. Yummy photos and clear explanations along with examples of her students work make this book a definite buy for any quilters library. It is truly inspiring.
