Quilt Art Engagement Calendar 2001, December 20, 2000
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Quilt Art 2001 Calendar (Calendar)
This is my third year having bought this wonderful desktop/ briefcase totable engagement bookelt. Obviously, returning as I have, I am VERY pleased with the booklet. The spiral binding is a REAL plus, adding to ease of entries.
The QUILT ENGAGEMENT CALENDAR offers large page entry space, with enough to accomodate all my appointments, craft/ quilt notations & quilt commitment deadlines, in addition to typical engagement calendar entries. The color photos throughout are breathtaking & inspiring as an advanced quilt designer, but also offer me similar inspirations when getting my feet wet in new techniques, design concepts & class commitments. [A good seasoned quilter is ALWAYS a novice, if lending him/ herself toward the self design aspect of this art craft.]
Used in combination with my festival calendars, show listings & quilt & craft expos, this booklet follows me EVERYWHERE, is both desktop perfect & fits nicely in a decent sized handbag. I would STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE CONSIDERING BUYING IT! Also, Amazon's price on this can't be beat elsewhere.
A final note to spouses/ family/ friends of quilters or quilter hopeful's: THIS MAKES AN EXCELLENT INEXPENSIVE GIFT. [How I only wish MINE would arrive annually as such; but, frankly, I rarely wait until year-end to buy it as I want to plan my projects/ UFO's well in advance.] A PERFECT SELECTION!!

QUILT ENGAGEMENT CALENDAR, December 20, 2000
This review is from: Quilt Art 2001 Calendar (Calendar)
This is my 3rd year having bought the Quilt Engagement Calendar so I obviously love it! I have found it to be useful boh as a totable- purse sized & desktop aide.
The entry spacing is very ample, allowing me to include notations on my own annual quilt/ craft project goals & deadlines, fest, shows, contests & class information, in addition to typical calendar planning entries. The spiral binding is a real plus, which I have found most useful for pulling out of a bag at a demo & jotting down notes or in notating ads on boards viewed.
The color quilt photos throughout are breath taking & awe- inspiring. As an advanced quilt designer, I find these useful in my own project ideas & planning. Whether a seasoned quilter, novice, or quilter want- a- be... or even one who simply enjoys the craft for it's art & beauty, the photos are most pleasing to all & highly useful regardless of the quilt experience or level. Quilters of all levels will find this an inspiration for attempting new techniques & challenges, while usefully tracking deadlines, UFO/ projects in progress & typical journal entries.
I recommend buying this for yourself, but also as a inexpensive indispensible gift for your quilt friends/ family or art appreciators. The price at Amazon can't be beat, and buying it well in advance is highly recommended as to permit ample time for project planning & notating craft- quilt events. I'd love myself to receive it as a gift, but alas, I am too hurried to await this from others. SO TREAT YOURSELF or SOMEONE SPECIAL to this favorite TODAY!! You'll be back for the 2002 issue, no doubt!
