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.

I bought this book when I wanted to make a quilt for my neice's first baby. The one I chose was fast, colorful, easy to make -- and I got it done before the baby was six month's old! I'm now making another one from the book, using a fabric I loved but didn't quite know what to do with. Great book, full of ideas.

The quilt that sold me on this book is the Attic Windows pattern. It is fabulous and easy. The great thing about the patterns in Quilts for Baby Easy as ABC, is that you don't have to make a quilt for a baby-make a quilt for anyone. Make a quilt as big or small as want. It is the most fun book on quilting and Ursula Reikes makes it effortless.

I have had this book for a few years. The quilts are easy and adaptable. It is now falling a part. I need to buy another one.
The colors are great as well.

Easy to follow in structions and great ideas for baby quilts

I have made a few beautiful quilts and it didn't take me a long time to finish any of them. I have received many compliments and have been asked if I have been quilting for a long time...Nope, it's only been a few months! The instructions in the book are easy to follow, and the results are fufilling and wonderful! Have fun!

I wanted all of Ursula Reikes' books. Her style is easy to understand and for a new quilter these are great books to get you started. I actually have used one of her patterns and made an oversized twin bed quilt from the book which turned out beautiful. Ursula tends to provide larger measurements for fabric needed to allow for cutting errors, so I have not ended up being short with any of her patterns. I would highly recommend her books to anyone interested in quilting.

I have used many of the patterns in this book over and over again. They look very difficult when finished, but are very easy. Loved the book as well as others in the series. When I hear someone is expecting a baby, I get out my patterns. Especially love the Attic Windows - what fun !!
