Walk 2.0: More Machine Quilting with Your Walking Foot

Great designs, but not easy to do on a domestic machine.
The designs in the book are amazing but on a full sized quilt, they are not easy/practical to do. It's hard to maneuver the quilt around this much on a regular domestic machine. Nothing wrong with the book. It it inspiring.

This is a must-have book
If you are not creative enough to do free motion quilting this book is a must have. Very detailed instructions on how to repeat all of her designs. This book makes me want to quilt my own quilts. The illustrations and pictures are very helpful. Great gift for a new quilter

Professionally Written and Illustrated
I have both Walk 1.0 and now Walk 2.0. Ms. Gering is a very talented, quilting-stitch designer, as well as an excellent teacher. This book is very well written. (As an English teacher, I appreciate that!) I’m terrible at Free Motion Quilting, so this book, along with her previous one, is very helpful. I can quilt straight lines, so her designs are manageable for me.Be sure to buy the first book because it has a tremendous amount of helpful information for a beginning quilter (myself included!). This one builds upon that knowledge.And you definitely need to practice!

Must have for quilters!
This book helps you get the most from your sewing machines's walking foot . It inspires you to complete the design of your quilt and make it your own by quilting it yourself! Includes lots of excellent tips and techniques and a ton of great photos of finished modern quilts. Highly recommended (and her first book Walk as well).

DIE Quilttechnik schlechthin
WALK 2.0 baut auf WALK auf.Die Beschreibung der Techniken geht noch mehr in die Tiefe, damit lässt sich das Quilten noch verbessern. Dazu gibt es mehr und anspruchsvollere Quiltdesigns.WALKEin Buch, das das Leben eines Quilters verändern kann. Für alle, die nicht Free Motion quilten möchten und auch keinen Longarmservice in Anspruch nehmen wollen, ist dies die geeignete Technik. Präzises Quilten mit ungeahnten Möglichkeiten.Nach reichlich Versuchen mit Free Motion Quilting habe ich aufgegeben. Es macht mir keinen Spaß und es gelingt mir nicht gut. Da kann durchaus ein Zusammenhang bestehen. Nachdem mittlerweile einige Quilttops ungequiltet im Schrank verschwunden sind habe ich durch Zufall dieses Buch gefunden. Quilten mit dem Obertransport (Walking Foot). Einfach zu handhaben wenn man weiß wie. Und Jacquie Gehring erklärt das ausführlich in ihrem Buch. Mit vielen Varianten einer Technik hat man schnell genug Handwerkszeug zur Verfügung um auch große Quilts abwechslungsreich zu quilten. Dazu viele schematische Zeichnungen, mit deren Hilfe man die optimalen Quiltwege sehen kann. Inklusive der dazu erfordlichen Markierungen.Darüber hinaus werden Grundlagen zur Erstellung eines Quilts erläutert, so dass auch Anfänger alle Arbeitsschritte kennenlernen: Arbeitsplatz vorbereiten, geeignete Materialien verwenden, Quiltsandwich erstellen, zum Faden passende Nadel, Markierungswerkzeuge, Nähmaschineneinstellungen.

Wonderful book with so many ideas/patterns!
This book gives a quick recap of the basics, then really delves in to the new patterns - builds well on the original book (Walk ). A great resource to have on your shelf for when you read "quilt as desired" on a pattern!
