If you enjoy the Elm Creek Quilters series, and like to quilt, this book is fantastic. The quilts are beautiful! The book is very well written with clear and concise instructions, and beautifully photographed. I really like that the traceable templates are full size as well, a big plus. The excerpts provided for most of the quilts pull you right back in to the books that these quilts are based on. A wonderful series and wonderful quilting books! I really am enjoying this book and cant wait to get started.

This quilting book has some very good projects. The directions are clear and the reading is fun.

As I was reading the Elm Creek Quilts Novels, I tried to picture these works of art in my mind. This book was a delight because I was able to refer back and forth from the book to the quilt. It enabled me to enjoy the novels even more! Thanks so much for that "extra enhanced" visual. It has inspired me to start making my own quilt blocks.

I have read all the Elm Creek Quilt books and enjoyed all of them. This book adds more details, reviews how the patterns relate to the books. The directions for making the quilts are easy and exact -- but then I am an experienced quilter

Being relatively new to quilting (have only been quilting for two years) I admit I bought this book only because I liked the novels so much, intending to some day have the time and skills to make the wonderful quilts I imagined and that were so beautifully brought to life in the cover at least (Round robin is practically exactly as I imagined it to be).

To my surprise, the quilts were not lovely. They were exquisite! I went mad about them! and on reading the instructions I found them clear, and the bits and snips of information about the characters and extracts from the novels only added to the charm of the quilt, for they reminded me about the circumstances in the novel around that particular quilt.

I highly reccomend this book, and since I am already starting one of the projects, soon I will add a review about how it was to actually follow the instructions to a neophite. I expect more experienced quilters will have no trouble at all

I have realy enjoyed the projects in this book. I like the step-by-step instructions. I would recommend it for all leaves of quilters.

This is an excellent book with beautiful quilts pictured and easy to read and follow patterns.

I've enjoyed the novels over the years and seeing the quilts from them made up is great.

What a wonderful collection of projects with well written easy to follow directions. Loved that the quilts in this book are those described in the Elm Creek novels!

I especially enjoyed memories of the delightful Elm Creek books intermixed with the patterns for the quilts from those books! It was like enjoying the stories all over again.
