I looked at the book on Amazon, it has some great reviews that say it's a good book for those new to EPP. There are a lot of pages visible on the preview; I was happy to see that she shows multiple techniques to do the same thing. For instance, so many people think a whipstitch is *the* way to sew patches together, but she shows multiple stitches you can use (I personally do not like the whipstitch). She does the same for how to keep fabric on the paper pieces; basting, glue, etc.
I think this would be a great book to invest in.
