"I wanted to create a book that would give quilters the basic skills they needed to 'take the plunge', along with exercises and quilts to practice them on. But also - and perhaps more importantly - I wanted to offer encouragement. If I can do this, so can you!

So, if you're new to machine quilting, or if you've tried it before but were somewhat less than thrilled with the experience, this book is for you."
