24 Flower Quilt Blocks [Paperback] Review

Might not be as difficult to do as they look, because they are foundation pieced.

My quibble with foundation piecing is that it can be a bit awkward to change sizes--and I like to do these at 18 or 20 inches per block.

I have yet to try one.

Fanciful Quilts To Paper Piece: 10 Projects (That Patchwork Place) [Paperback] Review

I loved reading Fanciful quilts to paper piece. It's full of great quilts, good photo's showing how to do things and clear directions for the patterns themselves. The writer also showed different ways of using the blocks or sections of a pattern to make something else as well - not a common occurance and much appriciated!

The pattern i tried first was the windmill block and it went together like a dream!
