Little Bits of Whimsy: A Pattern Book [Paperback] Review

Little Bits of Whimsy: A Pattern Book [Paperback]This book is a real little treasure for all quilt lovers. The book is just a small one, but it is filled with color pictures, patterns and great tips for any quilter.
Kathleen Rindal Brooks is a well known quilter and teacher from Illinois, and this is her first quilt book. But luckily not her last. In the book she share some great secrets on how to make perfect and accurate miniature blocks and piece them together making funny and whimsical miniatures. Kathleen Brooks is well known for her use of fabric and to let the fabrics tell the tales through her quilts. Conversational prints are used in a way to get the most out of them, and she mixes different fabrics in a perfect way. The book shows us new tips on making traditional patters, like log cabin, charm quilts and signature quilts. Kathleen has developed her own downsixzing method to make the most perfect miniature blocks, and she also teaches us how to sew on paper to make the miniature blocks the most perfect ones.
And all the miniatures in the book are displayed in a whimsical and very charming way. After you have looked through the pictures of the book you want to take a look in your house and use some of Kathleens ideas in your own decoration.
