5.0 out of 5 stars Fast Quilts from Fat Quarters, January 9, 2007
My, oh, my. I had no clue how wonderful this book was when I ordered it.
My 14 year old granddaughter picked up the book last week and shared how
many she wanted to make out of this one. It's sew easy instructions and
the speed in which you can complete any of these quilts makes it a book that I'm sure to use over and over again. Can't wait to find time to get one or more done.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome book!, October 11, 2007
This book is amazing! Great use of fat quarters, easy to follow instructions, and very good diagrams. The design possibilities of the fat quarter cutting plan are endless, no two quilts will be alike.

4.0 out of 5 stars great fat quarters if the measurements were right, December 10, 2007
I do love this book, but I'm a little sad that it says a fat quarter is 20 x 22 which is not right they are 18 x 22, but to me it doesn't matter much since I jsut use scraps of fabrics, but you can always just not cut out all the pieces if you have fat quarters. I do love the book though, made several quilts already

1.0 out of 5 stars Misleading Concept
This book is based on the concept of cutting a standard template of blocks from fat quarters (20x22) and then designing quilts from the resulting pieces. Read more
