SUMMARY- This book builds on "Your First Quilt Book". You can see from the Table of Contents that she didn't make any assumptions, and gives a great basic grounding on hand applique. The projects given are geared towards practicing basic techniques and are not too ambitious - if it turns out hand applique isn't for you, you won't have invested that much time, and you'll have something giftable to show for it.
