Sweet little Quilts

I really loved this book. It would be perfect for a beginner. You could practice or turn it into a doll or baby quilt. The patterns are sweet.

It one of my favorites

I love this book and have made the quilts time after time. I do think the seams in the star points get bulkey so I trim away the excess fabric even though it's not described in the book. Its a must have if you like or love little quilts.

Excellent book ! Wonderful folkart designs.

I think all quilters should own this book. The directions are easy and include both rotary and template patterns. The pictures of the finished designs are vibrant and beautiful. I taught a beginning quilting class and we used this as our "textbook". Many of the quilts featured can be completed in just a few hours. Also, my favorite part of the book is how the quilts are shown on display. These pictures offer great decorating ideas.

A great first quilting book

This was the first quilt book I ever bought and dozens of books later, I still think it is one of the best I own. The authors make quilting fun, not intimidating, and provide instructions so clear and simple that a child could follow them. Better yet, their style is very distinctive--elegantly simple, with beautiful color choices, and lots of pictures showing how to use the quilts to decorate your home. If you long to see what quilting is about, but don't quite trust your skills or taste, try "Little Quilts." You will learn confidence as well as skills...and everyone will love your quilt.

Inspiring for beginers!

I loved the easy to use instructions and the colorful examples. I really enjoyed the course I took given by the authors, Alice Berg, Mary Ellen Von Holt and Sylvia Johnson, in Norway. Thank you for your inspiring book. This is a definite must have book on any quilters shelf/night stand.
