FOR FANS OF LITTLE QUILTS

For some years now, I've been waiting for new books by Berg, Von Holt and Johnson. The three authors wrote two excellent books for quilters: "Little Quilts" and "Celebrate with little quilts". These were inspiring books for quilters who want to sew quilts from traditional American block patterns. Recently I found what I've been waiting for: the "Big Book of Small Quilts". This book by Mary Hickey continues in the style of the "Little quilt books". The instructions are easy to follow; the patterns are traditional block patterns; and the size of the quilts are small, so the results may be enjoyed in a short while. I am very happy to recommend this book!

great variety of small quilts

This is a great book with a lot of variety and easy to follow directions. It is the first time I tried paper piecing, and I am hooked. I am a tough grader and I give it a four star. Looking forward to her next book. Only a few patterns are paper pieced. From sailboats & lighthouses to blue jays and cardinals to stars & log cabins there is something for everyone. My first quilt looked like it took me a long time when it went very fast.

excellent book of little quilts, nice, easy directions!

This is a wonderful book with a lot of directions and advise for beginner quilters. I am very happy to find something like this
