Love this book!, 2008-07-10
I had never made a quilt before and wanted to make one for my new grandson who is on the way in August. This book gave me the step-by-step information I needed to complete my task in ONE DAY! I can't wait to give my gift to his new Mommy!
I highly recommend this book for anyone who has some sewing skills but is a novice at quilting.

Good but not great, 2008-04-05
This is a good book if you can't get any other quilting book or all you want to do is make small projects, like wall hangings or table runners. The information presented isn't any different than what you can get in (for example) Quilter's Complete Guide, and not as well done.

I'd give this a miss if you're a new quilter looking for a teacher in book form.
