Wonderful!

This book is even better than the first! The quilts are gorgeous, the instructions easy. I've make many of the quilts from the first book and can't wait to start with these quilts. Includes many quilting techniques, including foundation peicing. A good book for beginners to the advanced quilter.

In the true spirit of Quilting

While this book, like its predecessor, is beautifully illustrated and a joy to read, it is the presentation of quiltmaking as a shared experience among family and friends that make both these books so special. I loved the first so much, I had to have this one the moment it appeared and it has only served to add to my list of pending projects.

More Quilts from the Quiltmakers Gift

I loved the first book, Quilts from the Quiltmaker's Gift, so I just had to have this second book. And I wasn't disappointed! The book is a delight to look at and the quilts are an inspiration. I love that each pattern gives two or more optional design and colour choices. And the fabric requirements and quilt layouts are easily understood and followed. I look forward to making several quilts from the ideas in this book.
