Book Description

Rather than the short lines and complicated swirls of hand quilting, this volume abounds in continuous line designs. Here are 86 great designs--attractive geometric, garden, and other motifs--without complicated starts and stops. In addition, it offers helpful suggestions for choosing and combining patterns, fitting designs on projects, resizing, selecting materials, and basting. Each pattern appears on a background grid for easy resizing, and repeat units and separate sewing paths are clearly indicated.

5 out of 5 stars Continuous Line Quilting.......2007-04-11

Perfect resource with detailed instructions on how to transition from one direction to another while machine quilting.

5 out of 5 stars Made Getting Started Much Easier........2006-03-23

We just purchased a long arm quilting machine and weren't sure where to start or how. This book was very iluminating and gave us a lot of help and information. Thanks.

4 out of 5 stars Priced right.......2004-03-18

This book focuses on borders and the patterns are on a grid so they are easy to transfer. Good basic designs for your library. This is not a book for the expert. Great for those of us starting out. Can't beat the price.

4 out of 5 stars A whole useful book for the price of a magazine.......2004-02-28

I bought this design book online as an inexpensive Secret Santa gift. She is not getting it!

Initially I was underwhelmed on opening the book. Each continuous line design is drawn on what looks like 1/4" square graph paper. On further examination I decided that this could be really useful for resizing the designs.

The introduction contains a generous amount of practical how to information, unusual in a design book as opposed to a how to book. In my opinion, those six pages alone would be worth the purchase price.

I found that each and every one of the 86 designs has its own "StitcherEase" tip, a clearly marked design repeat and most importantly, shows how to turn the corner with the design. There are flowing curved designs, and sharp geometrics, simple and complex ones.

Many of the designs would be lovely used in the borders of a quilt which had an overall or meandering design in the center.

This book is an inexpensive, excellent and inspirational resource for anyone who would like to learn how to mark and machine quilt their own tops.

3 out of 5 stars Another quilting design book........2003-09-16

This book was pretty much a waste of time. Most of the patterns are available on the internet.
What was I thinking?

Skillfully drafted and endlessly varied, the wealth of stitching patterns in 250 Continuous-Line Quilting Designs ought to satisfy many quilters looking for interesting motifs to enliven a project. Author Laura Lee Fritz lays brief but good groundwork for planning out the pattern on the quilt top and transferring designs, then devotes virtually the entire book to the designs themselves. Her extensive repertoire of motifs is divided into seven categories that include animals, domestic objects, botanicals, and abstracts. From a simple geometric to a detailed creature to an intricate scene, these designs should please quilters of various skill levels. --Amy Handy

5 out of 5 stars 250 Continuous-Line.......2007-02-07

Great practise book. Lots of designs. Good addition to a machine quilting library.

5 out of 5 stars Free Form Quilting Resource.......2005-07-27

Excellent resource of wonderful free form expressive quilting designs. Not your traditional patterns, but very usable & spontaneous designs. If you want to quilt "off the beaten path" this book is for you.

2 out of 5 stars Not very satisfied.......2004-03-18

Yes, the book does provide you with 250 continuous line designs; however, I couldn't find more than a few that I would even consider using. The patterns are very child-like and may be appropriate if one was quilting for a baby or child. The book is nicely segmented by area (bird, animals etc.) Very few instructions, only the basics. For me, it wasn't worth the price and had I had the chance to see it before purchasing, it would not be in my library. A good choice if you want a way to quilt outlines of animals, plants, and birds.

5 out of 5 stars terrific inspiration for machine quilters.......2002-07-25

This book is completely unique in the world of quilting designs. All are intended for use with a sewing machine, although it need not be a longarm quilting machine. I did fine with several of them on a regular Bernina. I am sick to death of precise, cutesy feathers and hearts. This book was like a fresh breeze coming through, letting me see machine quilting in a whole new way. Not only have I used the designs, I have been able to invent some of my own using inspiration from this book. Most of all, it loosened me up. Straight, perfect lines are NOT always best. These naturalistic, freeform designs were just what I needed. AND the book is so [inexpensive], how can you go wrong?

1 out of 5 stars Uninspiring.......2002-06-22

The designs in this book are uninspiring and not even well done. It is Ok to have the outline of a dog as a quilt design, but it should be well executed and not look like it was done by an amateur. I have picked this book up a half dozen times, but was never inspired to buy it.

    5 out of 5 stars An outstanding instructional.......2007-09-06

    Glorianne Cubbage's TWICE QUILTED: CONTINUOUS-LINE QUILTING DESIGNS offers up some twenty sets of patterns with over 40 designs in all for both traditional and themed motifs, and discusses the special attributes of continuous-line design. Instructions in this kit include directions on how to trace, transfer and sew the designs: while the box format lends more to personal quilter's acquisition than library lending, it does provide an outstanding instructional highly recommended for any newcomer to the continuous-line process.

    4 out of 5 stars Great Patterns.......2007-08-29

    This is a very helpful, easy to follow guide with easy to use patterns. Very versatile. No hassle payment and delivery.

    5 out of 5 stars 40 designs.......2007-06-22

    I have done simple machine quilting such as stitch in the ditch and my own free motion quilting but I have never followed a pattern as I thought it would be too hard. Twice Quilted show me I was wrong and gives me the tools I need to learn to follow a pattern.

    There is a book that takes you through the process and 40 patterns. The book explains what supplies and equipment you will need, how to modify the patterns so you can create your own designs and how to stitch the designs. There are tips on free-motion quilting and lots of graphics for us visual minded quilters!

    Grab some tracing paper or tear away stabilizer, a marking pen and your quilt top and have a ball. Don't let "tradition" hold you back. Do your own thing and make your quilt really yours!

              Very good use natural material (flowers, leaves, branches, etc.) to illustrate color combinations that go well in the landscape. Much better representation of color with photographic swatches of real material instead of printed color representation. From a gardener or horticultural view a real plus. Fun just to leaf through.

              5 out of 5 stars Guide to practical use of color in flower garden design.......1999-07-22

              This book really helped me to design flower gardens well. It has color theory and practical uses for all seasons. It uses both flowers and foliage and has some gorgeous combinations I would n't have tried. It is most useful for someone who knows the flowers that grow in their area and can create a working scheme with those flowers mimicking the color scheme in the book.

                    5 out of 5 stars INSPIRATIONAL!!.......1999-03-23

                    Birthflowers of the Landscape, by Linton McKnight, is a refreshing contribution to the spirituality of flower gardening and landscaping. His insight and practical suggestions provide a good grounding for the creative gifts instilled in all of us by our Creator.

                    5 out of 5 stars FANTASTIC!!!.......1999-03-23

                    This book shows you how to take these beautiful flowers and create a garden that will give you beautiful color all year. It also shows you that you have a Birthflowers of the Landscape flower which will magically bloom on your birthday every year. This author has been interviewed for the A&E Open Book Show and it is gaining national recognition in major publications such as Better Homes and Gardens, BottomLine, etc. A must for all gardners and for those who love flowers.

                    5 out of 5 stars A WONDERFUL BOOK.......1999-03-23

                    I have read your wonderful book. Not only will it be very helpful, especially for new gardners, this will be a wonderful addition to my horticulture library. Thank you for sharing it with me.

                    5 out of 5 stars Most original book I have seen in years!.......1998-10-20

                    I loved this book! The idea is very original, and the photos are beautiful. As a gardener, I have been trying for years to get color in my yard all year, and this book was just what I needed. The idea of the Mystique surrounding the birthflowers is great too. I'd have to give it an A+, definately five stars!

                    5 out of 5 stars Fun, Informative, Easy Reading-Gardening.......1998-05-15

                    This book is not only for garden enthusiasts, its for the novis as well. Makes the chore of creating color all year round in your garden fun! Also a bonus of your personality traits and history of your own birthflower. I'm born in September and my birthflower is Canna, What's yours? Read it! You'll enjoy it!

Let Mom and Dad handle the discipline and the scolding and leave grandma to do the cuddling and the holding.

                        1 out of 5 stars If you like Engelbreit you'll be disappointed.......2003-05-10

                        As a fan of Mary Engelbreit and a first time grandmother-to-be I thought this would be a fun book.
                        It was dumb, not amusing and definitely not worth picking up.

                        5 out of 5 stars The perfect gift for Grandma.......2003-01-30

                        I bought this book as gifts for my mother and mother-in-law and couldn't have been happier with it. It is full of colorful, vibrant pictures and the words truly capture what a Grandmother is all about. Any Grandma would love this book!

                        5 out of 5 stars Perfect gift.......2001-02-14

                        This book is a perfect gift for anyone you know that is going to be a grandmother or is already a grandmother. If you are invited to a baby shower, take along this extra little book for the mother of the mother-to-be. She will LOVE it!!!

                        I just purchased this book for my mom. My baby will be her first grandchild. I had it gift wrapped and shipped to her directly, so it was a surprise. She was overcome with so much joy and emotion. I'm glad it made her so happy.

                        5 out of 5 stars a very sweet gift book.......2000-03-14

                        This little book is great to give your mother when you find out you are expecting the first grandchild.
