5 out of 5 stars Must have for any fiber artist   July 6, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Whether or not you're a quilter you would find it hard not to find inspiration in the pages of this book. Page after page of the most incredible quilts await you in this 400-page book. The photographs are clean, clear and placed on pages with no background clutter to detract the reader's eye. This is a book to be savored one page at a time and one that you'll find yourself picking up and flipping through over and over again. A must have for any fiber artists library.


5 out of 5 stars Long overdue and a visual, insightful treat   June 26, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

Martha Sielman has put together a book documenting and celebrating 40 quilt makers and their art with beautiful photography, an insightful intro for each artist by Sielman, and commentary from the artist. Every page is a visual treat. A book of this type of art was long overdue, and this volume is everything one interested in quilt art (or any textile art) could hope for. Bravo!


5 out of 5 stars A plethora of inspiration   June 24, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

There is so much eye candy in this book that I ran the risk of diabetic shock just browsing it! This is an amazing collection of fiber art, a plethora of inspiration and a joy to own. I would give it a 7 star rating if there were one. It's a "must have" in every fiber artist book collection! Bravo Martha!

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful and inspiring   June 21, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I highly recommend this book for your quilt library whether you create or just admire fine art quilts. The artists selected are varied and talented. The format allows the reader to follow the growth of each artist over a period of years. The photos are wonderful and inspiring. When my quilting friends saw this book, they rushed to order it.


5 out of 5 stars I love this book   June 21, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I just love all the wonderful artists in this book. The pictures are wonderful and it's a book to look at over and over again. By having ten pages for each artist you really get to see a good representation of their work. I hope they do another one to add all the wonderful artists still out there.
