I am a huge fan of the first Quilts from the Quiltmaker's Gift publication. I loved the book and have made three quilts that were inspired from the patterns found there. This sequel, More Quilts from the Quiltmaker's Gift is inferior on nearly every level. The patterns are not so interesting, and seem more fussy and complex. In addition, in this sequel publication, the patterns are not rated by level of difficulty, which I believe is a detriment. Finally, the actual quality of the book is not good. Within a day of bringing it home from the store, the cover of the book had curled up like a wood shaving! I think the authors would have done well to stick with the same publisher who put out their first effort. About the only good things I can say about the book is that the instructions seem clear and the photos of other color options are helpful.

I loved the first book, Quilts from the Quiltmaker's Gift, so I just had to have this second book. And I wasn't disappointed! The book is a delight to look at and the quilts are an inspiration. I love that each pattern gives two or more optional design and colour choices. And the fabric requirements and quilt layouts are easily understood and followed. I look forward to making several quilts from the ideas in this book.

This book is even better than the first! The quilts are gorgeous, the instructions easy. I've make many of the quilts from the first book and can't wait to start with these quilts. Includes many quilting techniques, including foundation peicing. A good book for beginners to the advanced quilter.

I agree with folks that many of the patterns in this book are not as appealing as the first book and I also do not like the lack of a difficulty level for each quilt as well. And the thing that is really bothering me about the his book is that in the instructions they list the fabrics you need how much you need and give each fabric color a number (fabric 1, fabric 2 etc etc etc) But when they get to the piecing instructions they only refer to the fabric by a color! I do not know about you all but when I make a quilt I choose my own colors and do not attempt to make and exact duplicate of the sample quilt in the book. So it caused me several errors and some pieces getting cut that never needed to be cut! I had to write in my book what fabric numbers went with each group of piecing so I would not keep making mistakes.

This book is supposed to be for all skill levels but that oversite alone makes it far more difficult to make a quilt than it should. I do not honestly recall having this issue with the first book and as that book is in storage I am not currently able to see if this is a fault with both books or just this one.

I am glad I only bought a used copy of this book and I am not too sorry I bought it but I cannot wait to finally be able to find the first book and use that one as my primary with this book used only for minor inspirations.

A quilt one of whose blocks has 36 half-square triangle blocks? according to some professional reviewer.

(really, it's not all that hard to make the Tree of Life. Fussy and a bit tedious, yes.)

But I'm not sure I want to make more than one arty block from that pattern--at least until I need a full-sized quilt.

That said, it's a lovely book. Especially nice are all the different colorways for each quilt.

The authors are very very particular about precision piecing. And not a whole lot of fun if you want to change block sizes. Easier to redraft the pattern from some other source.

I really loved the Quilts from the Quilt Makers Gift book. This one is good, but not as good as the author's first. As a new quilter I really miss the little birds rating the difficulty of the pattern.

I enjoyed the first book Quilts from the Quiltmaker's Gift. Both books have wonderful directions, even pressing instructions. Much to my dismay, I discovered that the Tea Leaf quilt had no template in the back of the book. I searched all over and was not able to find it. Could anyone help?

I love both of the books inspired by the Quiltmaker's Gift but in More Quilts.. there is an error in the Fish quilt, last quilt in the book. The Fish unit 2 Reversed on pg. 143 is not reversed. Use the back side of your copy however, and it will work fine.
