4.0 out of 5 starsMultiple uses...
By Amazon Customer VINE VOICE on November 15, 2004
Format: Paperback
You could use this book either to make the quilts she shows, or as an idea book. Porter gives detailed instructions for making quilts based on floor tiles, including pieced and fused techniques. It's one of those books that seems like a "niche" idea but actually teaches techniques of design, composition, and construction that can be used in many different ways. The pictures are clear and inspiring.

5.0 out of 5 starsthis will open you eyes
By E Rice on July 3, 2005
Format: Paperback
to all sorts of inspiration around you.

after seeing the author on simply quilts, i decided this book would be worth checking out. so much so, i bought it.

the quilts are fabulous. some of the designs used extremely advanced piecing techniques to reproduce equally advanced tile and mosaid techniques. some quilts are shown in natural colors to recall the marble, and then in funky wild combinations to show that the designs are great as designs, not just as a floor design.

not perhaps for the absolute beginner, there are some patterns a quilter with one or two projects accomplished could make.

definitely belongs on your quilting bookshelf.

5.0 out of 5 starsInspirational!
By Janet M. Foltz on August 16, 2005
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I highly recommend this book. I was completely spellbound the first time I looked at it. You may hear about copying floor tiles into a quilt pattern, but to see the actual end results is...well, amazing. These are some of the most beautiful quilts I have ever seen, and the instruction to make one of your own are simple and very clear.

In short, it is one of the most inspirational books I have ever purchased. After reading it, I find myself discovering quilt patterns in more and more places.

This book definitely belongs in your quilting library.

For the innovative quilter who enjoys a challenge and wants to produce a quilt that is above the run-of-the-mill quilts. There are many patterns with excellent pictures and directions. The quilts are stunning and have interesting stories to tell. A great buy for your money!!!!!!!
