Customer Reviews

Charming!

Lots of charming ideas for all your scraps! There are specific ideas and patterns, but also general guidelines to follow when creating your own folk art quilt. Fun!

Fun, colorful country designs

The designs in this book are great for people who love the country folk look, lots of color, and, in one particular quilt, animals (especially cats). There are good patterns and templates, nicely illustrated with complete directions and instructions. The author also gives alternative ideas, in case you want to customize a quilt. It's a good one to keep in your library.
