The biggest challenge a quilter has, in my opinion, is what design to use when quilting the finished sandwich. For some, the job is just too big and the tops are sent to a long-armer to finish. But if you want to do it yourself but don’t know where to start, this book will make that first step easier.

With 180 different designs, you should be able to find one that fits your quilt. The are two pages of how to use the book and it shows beginning with a pad of paper and a marker. Try out the motions of the design on paper. Once comfortable with that, make a small sandwich of your materials and quilt the design on it. When all of this is done and you feel ready, it is time to tackle the quilt itself.

The very first design is one that needs no marking and has no straight lines. Perfect for any quilter that feels less that steady at quilting the real thing. It even shows the direction you need to go to make it a continuous line design.

Lines, circles, rectangles, waves, loops and a host of other motions make up the 180 designs. From simple to more detailed, these designs will make quilting your quilt easy.

This book is a wonderful reference for new doodles , many new designs and how to doodle. Instructions are user friendly and easy to follow.

Beautiful book with detailed illustrations. No matter how comfortable you feel about free motion quilting it is easy to get started with Karen's instructions. From beginning to advanced quilting, the only limitation is yourself and not purchasing this book to guide you through the process.
