I picked this ebook up on a recent free promo.  I quilt, and thought this would be a good resource for my quilting library.This is a short book.  It is a very basic introduction to quilting.  To it's credit, it has good quality pictures.  I recommend a color reader for this book, black and white does not bring up the pictures as well.  The text is minimal which makes this simple to follow and easy to understand.  All the basics are covered - hand sewing, machine sewing, cutting, layout, assembling, and putting together a basic patchwork quilt.  I think this would not confuse anyone just picking up on quilting, and would make a good first quilting introduction to the younger crowd.  I would have liked to see just a bit more - some history, some examples of the other kinds of quilting, like applique, and a bit more about basic quilt patterns - 9 block etc.  It covers the bare minimum.  Nice, and good if free.
