 wonderful but so brief! June 4, 2008
This is the first of Sherrill's books that has left me wanting more. What's there is great there just isn't enough... I have 3 of her books now and this is the first one to disappoint me.
I love Sherrill but this one is a rip off!!! May 15, 2008
What a disappointment!!!!... nothing really new or innovative. I am avid Sherrill fan and have all her books but I will think twice before just running off to buy her next book. I really felt this was a great waste of my money.

I am, first of all, stunned at the vitriolic attitudes of some of the reviewers. I am relativly new to collage and fabric, but have been a painter and sculptor for many years. All of her books have a place in my library and have always been the first "go to" references for me. Having not embroidered for a while, her simple, approaches were instant reminders for me. She is always so clear and exciting at the same time and gets me going for it without fear. She is so resoursful with her tools and has expanded my imagination and helped me overcome my fear of the sewing machine! Kudos to a talented spirit with a joyfull attitude!!!! Just listen to your very special self.

I hoped Sherrill would give us another book..and it was worth the wait. As always...her work is drenched in gorgeous color!!! It is very concise...which is helpful for someone like me who doesn't have enough extra time to use a larger format instruction book. The Gallery portion was very inspiring...that's what I need to get motivated...lots of smaller project ideas that I could actually complete! Enjoy!!!

Upon reading the reviews for Sherrill Kahn's latest book Stitched Collage ,I strongly disagree with the negative reviews. This book joyfully showcases Sherrill's signature style and color sense. There was a lot of very useful information that I as a long-time fiber/mixed media artist haven't seen in such a comprehensive way as this book offers. Since when does a book have to be more than 32 pages? If the material and info is succinct as it is in Sherrill's book, you don't need more pages. Most of the books out there have way too much information that is "fill" and quite confusing. So to those of you who were unecessarily negative,,,,get into another art form , and to those of us that are praising the book,,,,,,,,,congratulations to us for having "great taste", Sincerely,
