Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of Crazy Quilt Odyssey: Adventures in Victorian Needlework

Book Review: An amazing source of both inspiration and instruction!
Summary: 5 Stars

The book begins with a short history of piecing, quilting, and embellishment thereto and then proceeds to offer a rich education in various needlework methods.

Happily, Montano does not limit herself to quilts, which are mighty big undertakings for many of us. She gives great ideas and instructions for smaller projects, including many for wearable art and adding embellishments to ordinary street clothes.

The instructions are quite clear and nicely photographed, which is extremely helpful for the beginner or needleworker of limited experience. There are many black-and-white photographs, but there are also quite a number of beautiful color ones, too, which really incite the creative juices!

I'm glad I have this in my library; it's one of the first books I pull of the shelf when I'm in search of ideas. DEFinitely worth a search of used book resources to find this one...or else I recommend checking out one of her many other books or videos.
