5.0 out of 5 stars Easy ways to create spectacular looking quilts!, September 11, 1999

Margaret Miller is at her best in this book! The blocks are so easy to make and you end up with a lot of time to play. I was amazed at how many different looks you can get with the same blocks - it just depends on how you arrange them. I'll make more of these quilts!

5.0 out of 5 stars Spectacular Mind Opener, September 13, 2000

This book has been inspirational to me. I am now in the process of designing my own "Easy Pieces" quilt. The concept of using only triangles and wedges and then cutting the 6" block from the sewn pieces is so simple even I, a beginner quilter, could figure it out. The color and pattern possibilities seem to be endless and the results are startling. I have to finish up a boring hexagon quilt before I allow myself to start my Easy Pieces quilt, but I know exactly what I am going to do and have purchased the fabrics already. WOW"

If you are really looking to expand your horizons in quilting then this is the book for you. She takes you beyond your comfort zone and demands that you take a closer look at how you view color, light and motion on the flat field that quilters work with. I love and own all her books and appreciate the push she gives to my mind!
