Industry Reviews "With colorful fabric pieces as your paints, and needle and threads for brushes, anyone can compose beautiful works of patchwork folk art." Crichton
"For Bolton, scraps of fabric are imbued with memories capable of inspiring creativity and provoking imaginative musings. The images she creates with patchwork have a charm far greater than the basic craft techniques utilized...have the appeal and freshness of true folk art, so a beginner need not be intimidated....A delightful primer that should interest a range of crafters coming from either a needlework or a painting orientation. Colorful illustrations complement instructions on both stitchery and arranging motifs in attractive compositions." Crichton
