Lovely book with beautiful quilts made by the very talented Nancy J. Martin. I loved the variations of color and mood provided for each quilt pattern. But honestly, I sent this book back because I have several of Martin's books which include all of these same patterns. In other words, this book duplicated the patterns by her that I already have. Just a word of caution for those of you who may own some of her other books.

Nancy Martin is one of my favorites, but this book disapointed me by using either the same or similiar patterns. For someone who doesn't have one of Martins book you will love her designs and instructions.
