Julian O. ★★★★★

I love how the instructions break down the speed cutting process—it made assembling the plates so much faster than I expected. The finished quilt top came together beautifully in just a few evenings.

Ryan ★★★★★

The machine appliqué techniques in this book made my first Dresden Plate feel so manageable—the speed cutting tips saved me hours. I love how clearly the assembly-line sewing is broken down, and the finished quilt looks beautiful.

Eva ★★★★★

Wendy Gilbert's machine applique techniques are laid out so clearly that I had my first Dresden Plate block finished in a single afternoon. The speed cutting and assembly-line sewing tips genuinely cut my prep time in half, and the steps are easy to follow even for someone like me who isn't a season
