Having been lucky enough to attend and enjoy classes run by the author, in Brighton, and I can't wait to try some more of the projects outlined in the book. Liz is a wonderful, calm and authoritative teacher, whether in person or in print so buy this guide: you won't regret it!

Haven't done much sewing and thought beginners quilting would be good place to start.
Lovely projects, easy to follow instructions. I fully recommend this book both for beginners and intermediate crafters. Thoroughly enjoyed making my first quilt, am definitely hooked on quilting.

I wanted a comprehensive easy to follow patchwork book for my students to use in my workshop where I teach sewing.
This book is perfect. Inspiring pictures to look at, good range of projects and well explained instructions.
There's a project to suit everyone in here from those who have just started patchwork, those who want a quick to do project and more experienced patchworkers looking an inspiring contemporary project.
An essential book for any patchworkers library!

This is a beautifully written and photographed book. It really is ideal for beginners. Elizabeth Betts has written in a very easy to understand way and the drawings and descriptions are also simple to understand. There are lots of projects in here that a beginner can feel confident about making and I think Elizabeth has done the right thing by starting with smaller, simpler items and then gradually moving up. I love this book and will be working my way through it. I strongly recommend this book to any patchworker/quilter and not just beginners either. Many congratulations to the author.

Good guide
Just as it says, it takes you from zero knowledge with a series of projects, some small. Well illustrated too.
