Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An Awesome Art Quilting Book!
I am relatively new to art quilting. I started working with fabric seriously for about a year now. I have been a mixed media artist for several years. I have gone over to the "other side" now.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Quilting Arts Book by Quilting Arts Magazine

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Beautiful eye candy, but nothing new
I am huge fan and subscriber of Quilting Arts Magazine. I have every issue and re-read them many times which is why I pre-ordered this book when it was announced. After reviewing it last night, I have to say that I was a bit disappointed because the articles and the techniques are the same ones that can be found in the magazine.
