5.0 out of 5 stars I think it is a lovely book, December 8, 2006

Judy "historyofquilts" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Crazy Quilting: Heirloom Quilts: Traditional Motifs and Decorative Stitches (Paperback)

I enjoyed seeing the beautiful antique quilts and reading about the makers. There are some nice close up of them as well so you can enjoy examining the details of the embellishments. Also included is instruction on how to make your own Crazy Quilt the old fashioned way.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good how-to, June 18, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Crazy Quilting: Heirloom Quilts: Traditional Motifs and Decorative Stitches (Paperback)

Good photos & how-to. A detailed pattern for the crazy quilt in the movie "How to Make an American Quilt" is included. The text reads rather like a museum catalogue. There's also a fan quilt that was inherited by the author, but it isn't a crazy quilt so its inclusion here as a feature quilt is inappropriate. Like another reviewer I think Patty McCormick should have been acknowledged.
