5.0 out of 5 stars Granny's Quilts:Vintage Quilts of the '30s Made New for Toda, November 27, 2003
By J. Johnson (Calgary, Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the best book on the subject of 1930's reproduction quilts! I have just about every book published about '30s quilts, but this one is my favorite.

Very clear instructions with each quilt and usually 2 sizes to chose from. Great Photos too!

I highly recommend this one!

This is the best book I have found for making 1930's reproduction quilts!
I love the quilts and the very clear instruction. The patterns are all wonderful and something that I would acutally make. Mostly pieced patterns and usually two size options. I have bought every book on the subject, but none are as good as Darlene Zimmermans'! You can't go wrong with this book!

Can't wait for her Granny Decor book to be published!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic book for the 30's lovers, March 12, 2003
By A Customer
This book is fantastic. Full of beautifully written dedications and notes on the history of 30's quilts. The 19 patterns are traditional and not modern interpretations. There are notes on colours and how to choose your fabrics. Worth the cost of postage and waiting time for delivery to Australia.
