101 Fabulous Rotary-Cut Quilts [Paperback] Review

101 Fabulous Rotary-Cut Quilts [Paperback]I've been a quilter for about two years.I like to rotary cut, and machine piece and quilt my projects.I want things done quickly!I also prefer traditional quilts to the more modern style.If your quilting styleis similar to mine - or if you're just getting started in the quiltingworld and looking for a style - you'll enjoy this book.Nancy J. Martin ismy favorite writer on quilting.The quilts are beautiful, the instructionsare clear and concise, AND there are color pictures of each quilt (that'smy favorite part).The quilts are rated according to difficulty (but noneare really THAT hard to make).The beginning of the book has a nice"basics" section and the book ends with a short section onfinishing methods.I've got so many new ideas for quilts now - i'm off tothe fabric store!Great book!
