Editorial Reviews

Review

A reviewer from Denver, CO says, 'I am a machine quilter and very new to the skill. This book has a wonderfully wide array of patterns from easy to advanced. It also has many different sizes as well as the instructions on how to vary the size should you need to. This is not a book of the same old quilting patterns. She breaks down her patterns into chapters based on themes, and she covers it all from mini quilts, to seasonal, or babies, or masculine, or ethnic themes (just to name a few)...'

5.0 out of 5 stars I absolutely love this book!, July 10, 1997

This review is from: A Treasury Of Quilting Designs (Plastic Comb)

Oh happy day!! I'm Snoopy dancing all the way to my thimble and quilting needles. This book is great! It's packed full of quilting designs in every size and theme imaginable. It sounded like the 4th of July fireworks around here with all the Ooooing and Ahhhhing with every turn of the page. I finally found a quilting book that I will use for every quilt I make! I absolutely love this book

I am a machine quilter and VERY new to the skill. This book has a wonderfully wide array of patterns from easy to advanced. It also has many different sizes as well as the instructions on how to vary the size should you need to. This is not a book of the same old quilting patterns.!!! She breaks down her patterns into chapters based on themes, and she covers it all from mini quilts, to seasonal, or babies, or masculine, or ethnic themes (just to name a few) Additionally the book is spiral bound, larger than normal size AND the patterns are all only on one side of the page. You can't lose with this book!!

5.0 out of 5 stars the most quilting designs ever in one book, September 25, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: A Treasury Of Quilting Designs (Plastic Comb)

I have never seen so many quilting designs in one book,let alone the fact that they are so beautiful.There are designs for every occasion.I love that this book is spiral bound for tracing or copying.There are even measurements for every design which takes out the guesswork of which designs will fit your paticular space.The borders are exceptional and each has a least one center block design to go with it,some have several.If you only bought one design book this one could be the only one you would ever need.
