Customer Reviews

Never judge a book by its cover...

Just because the title of a book has the word "Cottage" in it, does not mean it is a book about Cottage Design. Who the author is, has a great deal of bearing on what you will find inside the pages of said book. Any one who would pick up a book by Lynette Jensen would realize she is a quilter and "Designer" of quilts. Ms.Jensen is a very well known and talented designer. If "Cottage" design isn't your style...then neither is this book. I happen to love her work, the book is a pleasure to look at, to gather ideas or improvise your own from hers. I enjoy looking at it over and over.

Great book for Quilters

Lynette Jensen is very well known by those who quilt. Her books contain mainly quilting patterns or ideas for decorating and entertaining with quilts and accessories. For those of you who quilt this book will not be a dissappointment. It delivers all of the great quilting patterns, tips and hints that her books are so well known for. This is a great book for a quilter.
