Ms. Coget has put together a nice book that could serve as a good introduction to boutis and trapunto. However, for a craft as beautiful and traditional as boutis, the history, examples, patterns, and instructions are sorely lacking.
I purchased this book looking for more detailed "how to" explanations and examples than I could find online, and I was disappointed. The examples I had already seen online were far more intricate and the video clip I downloaded for free by Marie Yolande was far more helpful than the basic instruction offered in this book. Unfortunately, after reading this book I still have too many questions.
