I have really enjoyed reading this book. I found it very informative and enjoyable and plan to use several of the patterns. I have purchased an additional copy to be part of a table decoration that I am making for the annual fall meeting of the Utah Quilt Guild. I've purchased about 15 books in the last 6 months and have enjoyed this one the most. I think it will sell very well. Our Guild has over 1000 members, and hopefully the book will get exposure at the meeting from vendors that are there. One problem I had was that I would have liked to have the Indian hatchet pattern printed in the book and it was not. If anyone knows where I could get a copy of it I would appreciate them letting me know.

I really love this book. I keep going back to it again and again, just to enjoy the colorful quilts! There is much to inspire here, and don't think that it is geared only towards the 30's reproduction fabrics. You can use the quilts featured in this book as inspiration for using any fabrics you may have in your stash. And Mary's no-fuss approach to machine quilting will help you finish all those un-quilted tops you may have. A must-have for any passionate quilter!

Mary Mashuta's Cotton Candy Quilts provides 7 quilt projects based on traditional designs and feed sacks, showing how to locate sacks and vintage fabrics to produce unusual designs of the past. Recommended for any involved in the fine art of quilting.

Happy quilts!This is a great book to see interesting quilting ideas that are novel and fun, like using buttons, colored thread , etc and vintage fabrics.

This is a great book - full of information and pictures for inspiration as well as patterns to make some beautiful quilts.

There is a detailed section on machine quilting which, as a beginner, I found extremely helpful.

I saw this book at my mum's quilting club whilst visiting and as soon as I got home I had to get my own copy.

2010 is my year to make at least two quilts from this book.

Thanks Mary Mashuta - I've got your other books on my wish list as well !

My product arrived in perfect condition, in a timely manner. This is a reputable seller and I will certainly purchase from them again. Thank you for the prompt and efficient transaction.
