"Not only are Pingel's designs completely unique and groundbreaking, but her tutorials are absolutely clear and concise." --FaveQuilts.com "A Quilter's Mixology has a good mix of large and small projects. This Loosely Curved Wall Hanging is one of my favorites in the book. It would be a great place to start if you are unsure about sewing very many curved blocks. I love the use of solids in this quilt." --From the Blue Chair "Not only are the quilts beautiful in all their curvy glory the quilting is pretty darn inspired too." --Portland Modern Quilt Guild
