5.0 out of 5 stars This author did it again - fantastic quilt ideas!, October 10, 1998

This is as good, if not better, than the author's first book, Quilts for Baby, Easy as ABC. This book has more quick and easy patterns in wonderful colorful fabrics. And they make great quilts for other family members too, not just babies - just add a few more blocks to make them larger.

Great book! I have never quilted before, in fact I just bought a sewing machine for fun 2 weeks ago. Since then, I have made 3 quilts from this book. It is so easy, I am looking for the first 2 in her series.

I have purchased tons of books for teaching kids how to quilt but none have been as easy as this. The publisher missed out on part of the market. The blocks are so simple the book should be available for children learning how to quilt.

I made one of the quilts based on the X-quisite block. I can honestly say that it took longer to pick the fabric than it took to make the quilt. I finished it in half a day (shhh - don't tell), machine tied and bound.

Perfect for beginners or people who want to make something special without a lot of time and fuss. The blocks rely on really great "conversational prints" to make the quilts work.
Change the print and have a lap quilt for an older person or pet quilt. It is also very easy to figure out how much fabric you need to make the quilt bigger so you can't go wrong.

It isn't just for babies - and it's so easy you will wonder what you were waiting for. If you have made a quilt before, get started today and don't be surprised if you finish it today. If you are a beginner, this is a great place to start.
