101 Log Cabin Flowers with full-size pattern for foundation piecing [Paperback] Review

The book contains 101 beautiful flower blocks, and instructions for 3 projects using these blocks.All blocks and projects are shown in full color.
I'm not a beginner paper (foundation) piecer so I didn't pay all that much attention to the directions at the beginning of the book, although at a quick glance, they do look quite detailed and well thought out, and there are lots of "how-to" drawings.
Block size is NOT shown on the individual patterns.The block sizes are listed in the General Directions at the beginning of the book.[I think they should be listed on each block - my memory isn't what it used to be].The color photograph of the block is not on the same page as the pattern, so you need to refer back and forth for color placement.There is a "grey tones" drawing for each pattern, but I don't find that very helpful - it should be in color (either a drawing or a photograph).Multi-piece patterns are NOT separated, and I find the bold lines (separating the pieces) hard to distinguish from the piecing lines.Seam allowances are also not included.Personally, I find it annoying to have to photocopy the pattern, then cut it apart and add (or account for when sewing) the seam allowance. Lots of people don't mind, tho, so I might be in the minority :).The assembly directions for multi-piece patterns are clearly diagrammed.
I like my patterns to be done a certain way, and in this book, they are not.However, I still love the book because the patterns and projects are gorgeous, and shown in full color.The patterns range from fairly simple to extremely detailed, so there is something for most skill ranges. If you like florals and you like paper (foundation) piecing, I think you'll enjoy the projects in this lovely book :)
