This book is great! Easy to understand instructions and inspiring ideas to boot! I've made several mini quilts using the concepts presented. It's one of my favorite books in my quilting collection!

Beats Beyond the Horizon
by Customer AR6Y276WN1JNI at March 19th, 2008
In Points of View, Valerie outdoes her first book, Beyond the Horizon. She includes many more techniques and hints, along with gorgeous pictures of her work and that of others. It's a book to get lost in. Easy to translate the written word into real life works and be pleased with the results!

by Customer A356P3194V8OWK at January 14th, 2008
Bought this book as a gift, was amazed at the amount of quality illustrations, my friend absolutely delighted, and I must admit, though not a technique I use, I read the whole book before wrapping it up, could not put it down. Valerie Hearder's advice on colour is of great help to everyone, she is certainly is a wonderful teacher.

I am a landscape quilter and found this book very helpful and surprizing when I started noticing the size of some of the quilts. Ex. 3"x3". I have had a very interesting time creating mini landscapes. I must add that her advice also works on the large quilts too. A good buy!
