Gotta Have It!

This is a beautiful book with great-looking projects. I heard someone exclaiming over it at my local quilt shop and I just had to see what they were talking about. I couldn't resist it, either. What I liked was the combination of patchwork and applique both. The quilt designs were innovative, too. I'm anxious to try one of the projects soon.
