### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    misleading title
  

*by A***K on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 30, 2019*

This is a large format book printed on great paper with tons of full color images. It is written well and easy to follow the authors idea's and project steps. There are 125 pages in the book. There are about 6 - 8 projects, each with step by step full color images, most using pewter with a couple using copper mesh.My problem with this book is that there is very, very, little about actually stitching on metal. The book should be titled "The Art of Working with Metal." Pages 1-61 cover what fabric to use to back metal, how to heat metal, emboss metal, stencil and paint metal, corrode metal, foil metal, stamp metal, etc. The first mention of stitching on metal doesn't come till page 62, about half way into the book. It resumes on page 64 and again on page 66 (skipping page 63 and 65 for photos). That's it on stitching. The remainder of the book is projects. As if stitching is barely mentioned, what is mentioned regarding stitching on it is extremely basic....run straight stitches on a diagonal, make little circles, wavy lines, etc. (see fourth picture)I personally found no valuable stitching ideas or stitching techniques in this book. If you've never worked with metal and want a basic course in how to texturize it or paint it, this book is for you. If you're familiar enough with metal to know that you can cut out a square and sew it onto fabric, this book will offer you nothing else.

    Superb!
  

*by K***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 25, 2009*

I refer to this book time and time again. Not only do I adore the luscious pictures and the creative pieces, but I love the process. After receiving this book and reading it - which I did immediately upon receipt - I had to buy metal. Metal, metal, metal. I bought several different weights. Different colors. Different finishes. I just needed metal.It took a little time for me to get used to the idea of actually sewing on metal - and not freaking out every time I lowered the needle down. But'cha know what? It didn't damage my machine or any needles!I've got to say, I'm hooked. Ann Parr has found a loyal follower - and I don't see that changing. Her work is amazing, the photos are excellent, the instructions are clear. An absolute, definite MUST for anyone who likes metal. If Ann Parr and Margaret Beal were to ever make something together, you may as well hang it up. I'd be in absolute heaven!A+++++

    New inspiration within the quilting experience
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 27, 2009*

This book gives you a lot of new inspiration. I think it is new to most quilters that they can actually stitch on metal with their normal sewing machine. It gives you good ideas which can be used for embellishment in scrapbooking or in art quilts.Recommended for those who like to explore new techniques in their quilting and scrapbooking.Onr thing which is missing in this book which most books offers is a ressource list telling you more on where you can buy the stuff used in the projects.
