I am an advanced quilter and found this booklet to be really good. First, I love the fact that the projects are quick and easy without looking it. Second, I like the two alternate color options at the end of each pattern. Although there are only three patterns in the book there are endless possibilities. This is the book for those of us that want a quick but original quilt. These patterns let today's great fabrics showcase themselves. I have already made one and have plans for three more.

I am a beginner quilter and this fits within my skills. This is a good book to get after "Start Quilting with Alex Anderson", once you've already had an introduction. The designs of the quilts here though are more interesting than the book I mentioned. They're different but not bizarre. I like how they tell you what mediums, lights, and darks to get with each quilt. This is something they failed to do with Super Simple Quilts #2, although that is a good book as well. This book also has simple instructions. I made a quilt from it and am delighted with how it came out.

Both Super Simple Quilts #1 and #2 are terrific for all levels of quilters. The simple patterns allows one to play with color combos.

I was looking for another easy to teach quilt pattern to beginner quilters and this was a breeze. The class I taught had 5 students and in 4 classes completed their quilt. This will be a favorite pattern when teaching.

This is a good book for wanting to do fast and easy quilts. I will be trying a few myself.
