Circles means curved piecing----not one of my favorite things to do. But if you want to tackle curved piecing, this book provides you with 23 pages of how-to's on the subject. Tools, fabric, techniques for cutting, appliqué methods and embellishments are all covered in this section.
The patterns, of which there are eight, each have a skill level, a finished quilt and block size plus the photo of the finished item. Materials and cutting lists re clearly written and there are graphics to help explain the written words.
Making, assembling, adding borders and finishing the quilt are written in an easy to follow manner. Tips are provide throughout the book in a green block so they are easy to find. An 11 page gallery will help give you ideas for your own quilts. The section on quilting ideas provides a dozen quilting designs so you can always find the one that will fit just perfectly with your quilt.
As with most quilt books, there is a 5 page basic quilting section in case you need to review a certain technique. The final pages are a resource page and a 3 paragraph bio of the author.
