Easy to read
This one was easy to read and follow. It gave several nice tips for beginners. There's not really a specific project in it but it tells you how to piece and bind if you've got something in mind. I liked that it explained the paper piecing. I hadn't found an explanation of it yet. A quick read too.

The only thing that was here was the forward and credits then cuts right to this screen and the rest of the book is missing. Very disappointed!

This felt like a blog post. The information isn’t bad, but there isn’t a lot of it.

Quilting Techniques for Beginners: Learn How to Quilt
I was happy to learn that there are ebooks available for quilting. I really wanted to get for my mother the latest in the magazines but I am not sure if we'd be able to enlarge the parts she would need to see.
I have done some quilting, some hand and some sewing machine and prefer the hand method. Always looking to find new things to learn to make things easier.
Lots of tips throughout the book to help even the experienced quilters.
Excellent source of information about how to start the quilt-cutting the fabric, sewing it, etc to putting the batting in. Even the different methods of assembling it together.
Several illustrations to show you how to do certain things are very helpful.

Simple and Direct
I could not have asked for a more concise and well thought out book. This gave me exactly what I needed without all the fluff I usually find in books. Well worth the buy!

Quilting Techniques. Elizabeth Betts.
Another good book for those who are starting to quilt. It is it a good idea to have a look at a few sources so you can choose what methods sit you best.

Ok
It would be much better if the illustrations were on the same page as the instructions. Also needed more illustrations.

This book is an easy guide to quilting, and truly is meant for beginners. It's assumed the reader has knowledge of sewing machine use and hand sewing.
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
