Wonderful

This book was a delightful surprise. There are quilts for every different skill level and all of them are lovely.

Best Quilt Book of 2005

With 126 pages, this book is loaded. There are 39 projects and the authors have designated skill levels for each: 19 beginner projects, 13 intermediate, and 7 advanced. You'll see folksy homespun projects as well as breath-takingly elegant ones. Quilts, tree skirts, wall-hangings, a gift bag, table runners, and stockings. Some applique, a few paper-piecing, and even redwork. Beautiful photography provides such inspiration, as the diagrams and instructions ensure success. What you won't see is the "quilt as desired" copout: Quilting suggestions are provided and truly helpful. Some of the items can be made with leftovers from the other projects. How cool is that? I confess that I was leery of the template method for the Dancing Stars Tree Skirt; but, it was just too pretty to pass up. Surprisingly, it came together easy and quick despite the templates and I am so enthused and confident that I may take a shot at cleaning the garage. But first, I want to make the Holly Jolly Basket.
