This book has a wonderful variety of patterns, both applique and patchwork, beginners and advanced quilters both will find patterns to their skill level. I also like the little tips scattered throughout the book, like working with little half triangle squares, making yo-yos. Some of the instructions also come with fancy quilting patterns, which I find very helpful. I also enjoy the little articles about the quiltmakers and their inspiration for making that particular quilt. I also find myself just looking through this book when I need to be inspired to finish another project!

This book has lots of inspiring quilts! From cozy country to sweet pastels to jazzy modern quilts, they all are great! I find I am picking up the book when I have a free moment or two just to browse, I seem to learn something new each time, or get a new idea to try on my next quilt project. I like that they feature a variety of styles, applique and patchwork, and offer tips on sewing curves and have some feathered quilting designs. I cant think of how they could make this any better!
