About the Author
Sara Nephew graduated from Alverno College in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with an art major. She sewed her first quilt in 1967, using corduroy squares from her daughter's rompers. In the 80's she began to apply her art training seriously to quilt designing.
Marci Baker made her first quilt when she was 9 years old, began teaching quiltmaking in 1989, and opened her own quilt business, Alicia's Attic, Inc., in 1993. She achieved a master's degree in math and combines those skills with her love of quilts to create innovative techniques for frustration-free quilting concepts.

Too complicated,

This review is from: Not Your Grandmother's Log Cabin (Paperback)
Not what I thought. It's very complicated. The instructions are daunting and I wouldn't even begin. I tried to give it to a quilting friend and she agreed. Definitely not for the timid.

Anything Sara Nephew produces is always top quality. She combines a wonderful mathematical solution to assembly quilt pieces along with a terrific color sense. She's a joy to learn from

My favorite quilting book!,
By
This review is from: Not Your Grandmother's Log Cabin (Paperback)
I bought this book just before going on a road trip, and my daughter and I spent 2 days in the car oohing and aahing over all the gorgeous quilts. Then we bought some fabric, and started making sample blocks. The blocks take a little effort, but are well worth it, and the directions are very good. I highly recommend the clearview triangle ruler and the qtools corner cut 60 tool to help you make the blocks. I did 2 of the flower petal blocks, and added some extra triangle blocks to the edges to make them into a lap quilt. I received many compliments on that quilt! I look forward to making many more of the quilts in this book.
