Sew One And You're Done: Making a Quilt from a Single Block (That Patchwork Place) [Paperback] Review

Quilters know that friends who don't quilt and even those who do love receiving quilts as presents. I love making quilts for presents, but unfortunately, I don't have time to make complicated block by block quilts. This book takes pretty, traditional mostly star blocks and enlarges them so that one block becomes a lap size quilt. Most are approximately 50" x 50" when finished. The center squares are usually about 12", so for the more ambitious, a pretty block that you have made can become the center. I particularly like the Star Within a Star pattern, which is the traditional carpenter's star block, enlarged. I have made this in traditional Amish colors (black background, light and dark purple for the star) for my son for Christmas and another in contrasting floral color for a friend. WHen finished, it is a very striking single star quilt, suitable for a wall hanging. The directions for all of the quiltsare good and easy to follow. The technique used is rotary cutting and piecing -- no templates, no paper piecing.The book is suitable for quilters of all levels.

This gloriously colorful book is packed with inspiration-and 15 projects for beginners (or more experienced quilters looking for a manageable weekend undertaking).
Veteran quiltmaker and teacher Rosemary Wilkinson, and her quilting friends, give all the information a beginner hopes for-from basic background (how to select fabrics with different tonal values, which hoops and frames work best, what equipment is essential, and so on) to each step through a quilt (proper cutting techniques, chain-piecing, adding borders, and more).

Even More Quilts for Baby: Easy As ABC [Paperback] Review

10 different quilts each photographed in bold colors and then in soft pastels.This is an awesome detail because you would not believe how different each pattern looks just switching between bold and soft colors!!
The quilts are listed from easiest to "most difficult", but even the most difficult one could still be completed by a first time quilter!!The patterns are beautiful yet so simple to create.
Instructions for each quilt are very clear and easy to follow.The book even suggests which way to iron each and every seam!!
The instructions for each pattern will only make a "baby" size quilt, but because the instructions are so well laid out (especailly the material requirements) it is VERY easy to adapt the instructions to make a larger size quilt. (So it goes far beyond baby quilts!!!)
Oh, and did I mention how easy, Easy, EASY these quilts are to make??? The truly great thing about them though is they look far more sophisticated and complicated than they really are!
You will not be disappointed with this book!

Baby Quilts: 15 Original Designs for Every Nursery Decor [Bargain Price] [Paperback] Review

I have used this book for two quilts. Both of which turned out to be very cute. Hopefully I'll use it for many more. The directions are clear and simple, the pictures are bright, and the layout is perfect. There are quite a few applique patterns for those who like that type of work. I don't, so a lot is wasted on me. However it's still worth purchasing if you're looking for some really cool baby's or kid's quilts. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
