Customer Reviews

If you need help with your stripes...

you need this book. Great ideas for using stripes in quilts besides the old sashing routine. Some designs are not for me, but that's makes the book more appealing to a broader range of quilter's. It's a great reference/idea book if you work with stripes...or want to. It's not a "new" book, but I think it's classic.

eye opening

this is an amazing book. not only are the quilts (made by the author and others) incredible, but she is overwhelmingly generous with instructions, advice, suggestions and techniques. the quilts range from relatively traditional to outright funky. this is not a pattern books--there are no directions for making any of the quilts. however, the quilts show what wonderful effects are possible when using stripes in imaginative ways. this is also a book to inspire a quilter to go beyond squares and triangles, to re-think traditional blocks, and to stretch her creativity. highly recommended to any quilter.

Overcoming the stripe challenge

I've always wanted to use striped fabrics in traditional quilt blocks, but never achieved the result I had in mind. Excellent illustrations and directions, inspiring photographs -- this is the breakthrough book I needed.
