Twilight Garden Quilts: 2 Wallhangings, 22 Flowers to Appliqué - Tips for Silk & Cotton Paperback – February 16, 2012

I have been working with Deborah Kemball's Beautiful Botanicals for awhile, and loving every project. This pattern compilation adds to her repitoire, but without the easily traceable pattern pieces. I like the new flowers she introduces, but would rather have the format like the previous book for usability. If you enjoy applique and especially like to compose your own designs in your project rather than follow the rigid patterns of some applique projects, you'll fall in love with Ms Kemball's ideas. You may follow her exactly or you may branch out and put different elements together to have something original with you. Her first book has been an inspiration to me, and this second pattern packet just adds to it. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys applique but wants some freedom in compilation.

It had been opened taped and had been used.

Love the book. Received quickly and in great condition.

Good basic flower and leaf patterns to use in applique.

Beautiful flowers! The instructions are clear and concise, and each flower is carefully explained. But because some of the shapes are fussy, this book is better suited to an experienced beginner, though an adventurous true beginner with patience will be able to produce a beautiful masterpiece as well.

I loved her first book and this is like an extension of that. I had thought it was going to be a book but in fact it is more like a small group of project instructions. I am a huge fan of her work so I was surprised but not really disappointed in this. I'm glad I got it.

I have admired Deborah Kemball's designs and work for some time. I have her book" Beautiful Botanicals "and now this pattern will be a lovely addition to my library of Needleturn applique books.. So many great designs and only 24 hours in the day to make them.! As soon as Aunt Millie"s Garden is finished I intend to progress to this Quilt. I do wish that she would design a larger quilt , not just for wall hangings.

Beautiful patterns

I have the first book and it's nice to have the patterns that are already enlarged .lovely books

Dies ist mehr eine Mustersammlung als ein Anleitungsbuch. Die Anleitungen sind gut, aber kurz gehalten, so dass sie für Anfänger evtl. nur bedingt nachvollziehbar sind. Dafür bestehen die Motive aus leicht beherrschbaren Einzelstücken. Die Autorin hat neben den Applikationen auch viel Stickerei mit eingesetzt, was den Motiven eine verspielte Note gibt. Zur Farbauswahl: Der dunkle Hintergrund lässt Die Blumen leuchtem; das sieht toll aus. Es ist allerdings zu überlegen, ob helle stoffe evtl. mit Weiß unterlegt werden müssen, wenn man nicht möchte, dass der Hintergrund durchscheint.

Got this pattern pack today, great patterns can'nt waite to get started on the aplique not for the faint hearted though.

COME ON TIME, LOVE THE BOOK

Ideales Buch für Interessierte an der Applikation. Gut bebildert und so auch für Jemanden, der kein englisch kann gut geeignet.
