Nice book for someone new to Baltimore Album Quilts and 3d applique,

This review is from: Mimi Dietrich's Baltimore Basics: Album Quilts from Start to Finish (Paperback)
This book is good for someone who has never tried doing a Baltimore Album Quilt or three dimensional flowers. But if the quilter is familiar with the techniques, the book is far too simple. It presents different layouts and techniques in a clear manner, and Ms. Dietrich does a good job with simple patterns. However, for someone who is wishing to learn about the more complex patterns and the history of this very beautiful quilt form, this book is only a taste of what can be learned from far more detailed sources.

Excellent instructions for Baltimore Album applique book. Designs in this book are simple enough for a beginner but would make beautiful quilt for someone experienced in applique. Lots of colored pictures and design options.

Our Applique Society is teaching classes based on this book for all the blocks. It is easy to read and photos follow the text well. She even goes over fabric selection. I highly recommend the book.
