This review is from: Come Listen To My Quilts -Print on Demand Edition (Paperback)
I am so happy that I added this book to my quilting library. The quilt artistry is beautiful. Kristina uses saturated colors and combines them in ways that makes each quilt look full of movement. This is a great book to study fabric combinations, color combinations, and especially movement through the quilt. Her quilts are light hearted and full of fun, I want more, more more! I love making quilts that make me laugh, this is a great book for building confidence and inspiration.
