A very useful book, step by step instructions and a story woven in. I like Alberta' style of writting which is easy to understand by me, that I am not a native english reader.
Five stars.

I found this book very informative and interesting. The instructions are clear and concise with helpful photographic examples that illustrate the various techniques and finished products featured in the book.

Definitely not worth the money

Compared to other books on quilling, this is one of the worst. There is not enough information if you are a beginner and if you are more advanced, the information doesn't quite make sense.
