This is my favorite coffe table book.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Watercolor Impressions : Quilts Inspired by the Bestseller Watercolor Quilts (Paperback)
When I first saw this book and its' authors on Simply Quilts, I just knew I'd make that piano quilt for my mother. She doesn't own a piano but it's always been a dream of hers. Mom and I had fun picking out the fabrics. Then I couldn't resist entering it in the county fair this year. I won a ribbon for 2nd. place. I've only been quilting for a year and this was my best effort. As for the rest of the book, I just adore all of the quilts. Sometimes when I need to take a break, I just glance through the book and read every word and appreciate all the work and artistic expression that went into the quilts. I even have friends and family that will ask me to bring out that book so they can look through it. I think someday I'll make another watercolor quilt, but I'll just use my felt board and let the pieces decide what it'll be. There's a lot of emotion in my life right now with raising 2 small children, and I'd like to surprise myself with those addictive 2 inch squares. This book makes a great coffee table book and an inspiration for anyone who appreciates art. Enjoy!!!

This review is from: Watercolor Impressions : Quilts Inspired by the Bestseller Watercolor Quilts (Paperback)
This book has some nice directions for starting a watercolor quilt. But it has no real patterns.
The pictures are beautiful and give lots of ideas to dream about, but I would prefer concrete insturctions for specific quilts to get my feet wet in the art of watercolor quilts. More than 1/2 the book is a photo gallery.
