Easy Program Operations and Excellent Animal likeness!

by Sharla Hicks © 2001

In my review of Margaret Rolfe's CD, I noted an excellent likeness to each of the animals represented. All of Margaret's inspired bird and animals designs including her beloved Australian animals are found on the Animal Kingdom CD. These includes designs from her popular books like, Quilt a Koala, Patchwork Quilts to Make for Children, A Quilter's Ark, and Go Wild with Quilts. (We carry the 3 animal books, click here.) The CD give you the option to print them out in multiple preselected sizes ranging from 4", 6", 8".

The jacket that stores the CD has a sample block of each animal. This makes reviewing what is on the CD a snap. The Animal Kingdom CD-ROM is VERY easy to use. Simply install to add the program icon to your Start menu, have the CD in place and away you go.

 

The CD includes instructions on how to do Margaret's method of foundation piecing, so if you do not have any of her books, you still have access to her instructional techniques.

From the Instruction menu and select your topic choice. Here you will find very detailed and graphically rich instructions on preparation and construction of foundation block.

1. Select your animal library of choice from the menu to open selected blocks on the library.

2. Click on the block of choice to view the piecing order, details about the block, size printing choices. This set of instructions can be printed for your review at the sewing machine.

3. Select your size and choice of image or reverse image to print.

If you love animals, this is a CD you will not want to miss.
