5 stars from a busy working mom

Time to Quilt not only shows you how to plan a quilt retreat with your quilting friends, but offers resourceful solutions to make more time to quilt at home without feeling guilty. I followed the books advise and scheduled time for my quilting by putting it on the calendar, planning ahead to have the kids and husband busy with their own activities out of the house. Then I indulged on my pleasurable project in good conscience.Time to Quilt has a wide variety of quilt designs and projects from large to small, with suggestions on what to do with leftover blocks too! My favorite is the playful ice skate table runner as the quilting makes a "figure 8". Can't wait to make the footwarmer soon.Everything about the book is beautiful: the photography, graphics, friendly writing style. The book has a positive, open feeling to it. Really clear and easy to follow instructions with good illustrations. Terrific tips on basic skills as well as how to put a group quilt together when blocks are not quite the same size.The book has recipes peppered throughtout. My favorites are the mix-in cookies and Scrapsoup. For the Pollo con Salsa recipe, you don't even need to defrost the chicken. It was so easy, it gave me more time to quilt!

A beautiful and inspiring book

I loved reading this book. It's gorgeous to look at, and the quilt projects all look easy enough to actually finish! The author has a delightful writing style. It's a great gift book, and I've already given one to my sister-in-law. What a treat!

something on every page

My wife and I have enjoyed the ideas in this book immensely. The layout and illustrations are engaging -- everyone who picks this book up stops their conversation until they've looked at every page! Full of great quilting ideas, and fun for the coffee table.

Great book

Great projects, recipes and lots and lots of tips....a quilt book that you can actually enjoy reading! Also a delicious chocolate cake recipe that's worth the price of the book all by itself. A great gift!
