This is the best quilting book I have bought yet. I have only been quilting for 3 years and these projects are both fun and easy. The instructions are very well written and are great for beginners and others. Each quilt is pictured on a seperate page by itself in great detail. I made the Americana Stars quilt as a gift for my cousin who just returned for the war and it was a great success! I am also in the process of making this quilt with different colors into a king sized bed quilt. The quilts are all throw sized but can easily be modified to make them larger or smaller. I am actually shopping to find other books by these authors. Few books I have found give such good instructions and clear pictures. I would recommend this book to anyone! Happy quilting!

You can never have too many lap quilts and the eight projects presented in this book are yummy! The designs are accessible to novice and experienced quilters alike. Rotary cutting directions are given for quick preparation and most of the shapes are squares, rectangles, and half-square triangles. The fabrics that are used in the examples really "sell" the patterns. My favorites were "Americana Stars" and "Button Basket". I highly recommend this book!
