I purchased the original Nickel Quilts book and loved it! And so you can imagine my delight when I received "More Nickel Quilts" in the mail. The concept of Nickel quilts is quite unique- all blocks therein are composed of 5 inch squares. This worked great in the first book, which had quite a few really awesome patterns, but I think in the second book, this concept is stretched a little thin.

With the exception of shoe fly, most of the blocks were just repetitive and eye-numbing. Patterns which are easy to see shrunk down on the page don't necessarily make great quilts for bedspreads. Overall, I found this book disappointing. If you have a chance, pick up Nickel Quilts. This was an awesome book. I think with "More Nickel Quilts"....The author just ran out of ideas. I'd recommend browsing this book before buying, to make sure you like the blocks.

This is a wonderful book, every bit as great as the first! The techniques are easy to follow, but are also enjoyable for more advanced quilters. It is an excellent way to use up scraps and More Nickel Quilts has more of a variety of color themes- brights, 30's, and more. It also has the math for each quilt in several sizes, so you can make a wall quilt or a queen size, which is nice. All the quilts are beautiful, it was hard to choose which one to start with! I'm making "Butterfly Waltz" right now and it is gorgeous; I can't wait to make the rest. You don't have to start with the first book, although it is a must have too!

What I like better about this book is the use of jewel tones, in comparison to the earthier colors of the first volume. Also, the patterns stick more to using only 5" squares and not cutting other size patches of fabric, which was a concern I had with "Nicket Quilts." Excellent for charm collectors.

I love this book! I have never really been a scrap quilter but then I saw Nickle Quilts and this book and I have to say that I will now be making any scrap quilts! I have already made one and am going to be starting a second very soon.

Fantastic book... not only great ideas on how to use 5" charm squares, but she also includes 4" and 6" squares too. Good directions on how to cut and make the basic elements of the quilts. I would purchase it again and will purchase more of Pat Speth's books.

I just started getting into charm packs so I decided to focus on patterns specifically for charm packs. This book was perfect for what I was looking for. The patterns look complex but the instructions are very easy to follow. Quilters of all levels would love this book. Beautilful patterns!

I originally bought this book to make the cover quilt--woodland clover---which done in fall colors with hints of plaids in them, turned out beautifully! But have taken a class with Ms. Speth--who is a dream to work with---and she reminded me of all the great border treatments she does in her books, made simply, but add such pizazzz ! Beautiful, easy to understand patterns in this book. Great for anyone quilter---novice to advanced!
