The Quilter's Album of Blocks and Borders : More than 750 Geometric Designs Illustrated and Categorized for Easy Identification and Drafting [Paperback] Review

The Quilter's Album of Blocks and Borders : More than 750 Geometric Designs Illustrated and Categorized for Easy Identification and Drafting [Paperback]The first was Ruby McKim's.
I made a lot of single blocks out of this book, I think friends still have denim--lots of variations on indigo--pillows made at the time.
I learned how to analyze a block, draft the pattern.
This book won't help you with the nuts and bolts of sewing.
It won't help you visualize a whole quilt. But I expect that this book still holds up as a block book. Everyone needs at least one. After I worked with it for a while I forever lost my shyness about drafting patterns in almost any size, three inches to 25.
