The book first came out a few years ago in hardback, and now Lark is promoting the paperback version. Here's the link, in case you'd like to order a copy or read more about it. Lark also has a lot of other fun and COLORFUL quilting and beading books at its site.
Here's the blurb from Lark's website: "Quilters have expanded the traditional boundaries of their art, embellishing
their work with beads, embroidery, and surface design. They, as well as other
fiber artists and sewers, will warmly welcome this idea-packed resource that
opens up a new realm of creative potential. An illustrated basics section and
quilting primer, fun techniques to experiment with, and 24 unique projects
created by well-known designers--including a retro-chic throw pillow, miniature
wall quilt, and fabric greeting card--will provide quilters with hours of
enjoyment, instruction, and inspiration. "
