A little handwork-and a few quick tricks-is all it takes to create these striking quilts inspired by old-fashioned Grandmother's Flower Garden quilts. Instead of sewing together thousands of tiny hexagons, make appliqué units instead! Start with one learning place-mat project, then get creative with ten quilt patterns. Take these perfectly portable projects wherever you go; appliqué units make it easy. Learn how today's inexpensive precut papers make the process a breeze-no need to draw and cut hexagons.

Quilts from Grandmother's Garden,

This review is from: Quilts from Grandmother's Garden "Print on Demand Edition" (Paperback)
This is actually a great book. I think they should have been more up front about the fact that it's primarily for miniature quilts but all you have to do is use larger hexagons and simply follow the same designs which I found to be unique. Am working on a traditional Grandmother's Quilt currently but when completed will start on the one pictured on the cover only using 1 1/2" or maybe even 2" templates instead. The book is well layed out, quite explicit re technique and an all out fresh approach to using hexagons. It's GREAT piece work while watching TV.
