The Ebook isn't a cd. It is a file you download and you can print it off if you want to. I am always available if you have questions or I can help in any way.

You can find the basics on my free teaching website.

I go into a lot more detail in the book but you can learn the basics pretty easily.

I have a small size template in the book and the size template for an 8" across Dresden Kaleidoscope.

My method is a combination of a kaleidoscope and a dresden plate. There are a few sites online where you can find this idea but I tried to make it easy to understand and follow the steps to great looking Dresden Kaleidoscopes.

I also show 3 differant ways to finish the Dresden Ks in the book

I can't use anything I put in the book to teach for free but I can help you with the basics. If you need any help just let me know!

sorry not trying to sell here just to explain the differance.

I did do a tutorial on making a mousepad with a Dresden Kaleidoscope which I still use.

I think that is the one you will see on the Quilting Paradise newsletter

Oh my goodness!!!!!!! That is gorgeous! Especially the second one. How on earth did you do that? Is that a pattern? If so, what is the name of it? I have to know how to do that.

These are from the book by Ricky Tims, Kool Kaleidoscopes
There is also a very good dvd which he does which is excellent. If you belong to "The Quilt Show" Alex Anderson & Ricky Tims, he does a workshop on them.
