Another beautiful Hawaiian quilt book, for yourself or a quilting friend, by Elizabeth Root.

Whether you like cats or not this benchmark book will no doubt be a favorite for years to come. For the first time you will find a collection of larger wall size to bed patterns in one book. All with full size patterns on two pull out inserts. Each of the ten patterns has a corresponding miniature size pattern (which can be easily enlarged) showing multiple color adaptations and each has a coordinating pillow size block. The finished designs are shown illustrated and photographed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unique Designs, October 19, 2007
By 
TT (Branford, CT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cat Nap Quilts... The Hawaiian Way (Paperback)
I have three of her books in this format and my review for each of them is basically the same:

They are all Excellent! Beautiful pictures and patterns - small and large. Only one pattern has a cat in it and that part of the pattern can easily be omitted or changed if you want. She breaks the patterns apart to give you single and mutli color options, very nice. The patterns in this book are very unique, and some are quite complex. Close-ups of the quilting are shown. Information and meaning about the design is given for each pattern. Instructions for those who don't know how to applique' are very clear. You will want to grab some fabric and start cutting and sewing right away.

This review is from: Cat Nap Quilts... The Hawaiian Way (Paperback)
This is another wonderful book by Elizabeth Root with excellent Hawaiian quilt patterns. The designs can be made in any size from pillow to large wall size with enlarging. The cats are not part of the patterns but fabric photos or applique of cats on top of the Hawaiian designs would be really special.

Also look at her books on Menehune(little designs) and Patchwork Pillows.

4.0 out of 5 stars applique in your spare time, September 26, 2007
This review is from: Cat Nap Quilts... The Hawaiian Way (Paperback)
This hawaiian quilt applique book provides pictures and patterns for making interesting, nature oriented hawaiian quilts. You can adapt the patterns to basic applique, make different size quilts and use the motifs for specialized projects. Don't be surprised, there are few pictures of cats. I can't wait to make a few myself.
