This was the first quilt book I ever bought and dozens of books later, I still think it is one of the best I own. The authors make quilting fun, not intimidating, and provide instructions so clear and simple that a child could follow them. Better yet, their style is very distinctive--elegantly simple, with beautiful color choices, and lots of pictures showing how to use the quilts to decorate your home. If you long to see what quilting is about, but don't quite trust your skills or taste, try "Little Quilts." You will learn confidence as well as skills...and everyone will love your quilt.

I think all quilters should own this book. The directions are easy and include both rotary and template patterns. The pictures of the finished designs are vibrant and beautiful. I taught a beginning quilting class and we used this as our "textbook". Many of the quilts featured can be completed in just a few hours. Also, my favorite part of the book is how the quilts are shown on display. These pictures offer great decorating ideas.

I loved the easy to use instructions and the colorful examples. I really enjoyed the course I took given by the authors, Alice Berg, Mary Ellen Von Holt and Sylvia Johnson, in Norway. Thank you for your inspiring book. This is a definite must have book on any quilters shelf/night stand.

I love this book and have made the quilts time after time. I do think the seams in the star points get bulkey so I trim away the excess fabric even though it's not described in the book. Its a must have if you like or love little quilts.

This is a nice quilt book with good instructions and lots of pictures. I did find however that after the first few pages you were looking at the same quilts over and over, only done in different colour schemes. There are still some excellent patterns and instructions. This book is very inspiring as well. Any room filled up with that many quilts is bound to feel at home.

I really like this book,the pictures are lovely and the patterns are very clear and easy to follow. I'm fairly new to quilting and found this book very inspiring . The thought of trying a small quilt for your first attempt at quilting is not as daunting as a full size one,and this book has some great ideas.

I love this book. I have made almost every quilt within its pages.
The quilts are small and lovely and versatile.
I have hung mine and framed them and gently draped them on tables and chairs.
The directions are clear and easy to follow.
I am not an amazing sewer but I can quilt. With this little gem...it was fun to do!!!

Very nice book. I had this once before but couldn't find it when I wanted it. Got it in great time and in the condition it was posted as.

I have made several of the quilts in this book. It is a great book. I would love to find another book like it. I like making small wall quilts or table quilts and this book was perfect for that. I highly recommend this book!

I really love this book. I just started learning about quilting only
recently and this book is a great addition to my new found hobby.My
book arrived in 2 days and is in great condition.
