I bought this AFTER some of the others (such as, "Favorite Fundation Pieced Minis") and therefore I was disappointed. Since this was written, foundation techniques have improved. Money is better spend on Doak's later work or other, more recent books on foundation piecing. (If you haven't tried foundation piecing, though, do yourself a favor and so - it lets those of us with minimal talent look very good!)

I was surprised this book had such a low rating as I thought it was wonderful. I like the variety of designs, the size of the finished squares, and the hundreds of combinations that can be achieved. I made a small house quilt using the variety of houses and the members of my quilt guild loved it. I think book sales went up as a result. Try this book for simple and successful blocks. You are only limited by you imagination.

This is an older book but just what I wanted in my quilting library stash. The book arrived in just a few days and it is in excellent condition. I hope very much to use this seller again plus I already have more quilting/serger books on order from Amazon.
