Customer Reviews

Great!

Made a reversible quilt and the results were spectacular: Around the World arrangement with scraps of florals on one side and the back, square-in-a-square with batiks and hand dyes. Was challenging but worth it. First large quilt I've been able to make without making in several sections. Great technique! Highly recommend this book for a quilter who wants to try something different.

A Terrific , User-Friendly Book

This book is both fun & practical, a boon to a "confident beginner" like myself. The instructions are very clear & the examples are gorgeous. Once you try this method, you might not want to go back, especially for machine-quilting.

One of the better books

I bought several books on quilting at once. This was one of the better ones. Useful information. Well written. Pictures are lovely and the diagrams are clear. Good for inspiration and refference.

Let's Get Sewing

I have tried the methods in this book and was very successful. I used the directions for "Down Home" crazy quilt, using some children's fabrics mixed with calico and an applique on alternate blocks. This made a charming baby quilt. I did not piece the backs of the blocks, but used some flannel. I also tried the method in the book for adding borders. For anyone who hates the struggle of quilting a big quilt on the machine, this is a superior method. I can hand finish the edges of the blocks while watching TV. I am now making the string quilt with plain backs. Uses up all your scraps!
