Quilts from the Heart II (That Patchwork Place) [Paperback] Review

Quilts from the Heart II [Paperback]18 brightly colored quilts to make by piecing and appliqué and embellish with embroidery is what you will find in QUILTS FROM THE HEART II.

A Baker's Dozen of pages begins the book with the basic quilting information.But it goes one step farther by including wonderful tips like how to determine yardage for Fussy Cutting a fabric in bright red dashed boxes.There is also a photo of a cute label to use to make your quilt one of a kind.

Each project has a full page color photo of the finished quilt.A paragraph about the quilt begins the actual instructions along with the finished block and quilt size.Then comes the materials and cutting list; followed by the assembly instructions.Plenty of graphics are shown so you can make sure the written steps are interpreted correctly.

Specific quilting patterns are not given for finishing the quilt.There are templates provided when needed but some need to be enlarged to use.The pieces to make the quilts are on the small side but you certainly could enlarge the pieces and just not make as many squares or you could make it a scrappy quilt and use up your "leftovers" from other quilts.A half page bio of the author is found at the end of the book.

Whether you choose to make a quilt "on point" or one that is "square", you will find lots of ideas in QUILTS FROM THE HEART II.
