Patriotic Little Quilts [Paperback]

Alice Berg (Author), Sylvia Johnson (Author), Mary Ellen, Von Holt (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: September 2002

Two days after September 11, the design team of Little Quilts contacted a thousand of their customers to request donations of red, white, and blue quilts to honor those lost. The response was immediate and immense. More than 2,300 quilts were received in just a month’s time and distributed to victims’ families during the 2001 holidays.

Inspired by the outpouring of support, the Little Quilts team has designed a new collection of patriotic projects that celebrate the American spirit.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great book on little quilts, July 15, 2003

This review is from: Patriotic Little Quilts (Paperback)

I'm a fan of the "Little Quilts" books and miniature quilts in general, and I think this is a really fun book with cute patterns that range from easy to difficult. I've made a couple of the patterns so far and the directions are easy to follow and adapt to your own ideas. A big plus is that all the patterns have templates for hand piecing as well as machine piecing directions, which makes the patterns even more versatile. It's also a pretty book and fun to just browse through but if you do you'll want to make the quilts before long!

This book is packed with wonderful, miniature quilts...so many ideas. I had seen a copy of the book at my local library, and decided I must have my own copy for the content is rich with ideas and patterns for miniatures. I was pleased to add it to my quilting book collection.
