Mariner's Compass Quilts: New Quilts from an Old Favorite [Paperback] Review

If you are a beginner - none of the books from this series would be helpful, unless you just want to look at pictures of quilts for ideas. There are no detailed instructions on how to make featured quilts, so you will have to be very experienced quilter to understand the patterns and sketches in the book. Mind you that is not the reason I gave it 3 stars - I am not looking to learn how to quilt, and fully understand that the purpose of this publication is to present winning quilts from the "New Quilts from an Old Favorite" yearly contest.
Although the quilts in this publication are beautiful, and a lot of work went into making them, they did not inspire me to make A Mariner's Compass quilt. I guess my taste is a bit different in quilts. I LOVE Mariner's Compass pattern, and just think a lot more could have been done with it.
There are many books from this series that I found to be absolutely wonderful, and I would recommend them for inspirations:
Pineapple Quilts: New Quilts from an Old Favorite (New Quilts from An Old Favorite); Bears Paw: New Quilts from an Old Favorite; Kaleidoscope: New Quilts from an Old Favorite (New Quilts from An Old Favorite)
