5.0 out of 5 stars A great first quilting book, April 15, 2000

By	Diana Weber (Anchorage, Alaska) - See all my reviews

This was the first quilt book I ever bought and dozens of books later, I still think it is one of the best I own. The authors make quilting fun, not intimidating, and provide instructions so clear and simple that a child could follow them. Better yet, their style is very distinctive--elegantly simple, with beautiful color choices, and lots of pictures showing how to use the quilts to decorate your home. If you long to see what quilting is about, but don't quite trust your skills or taste, try "Little Quilts." You will learn confidence as well as skills...and everyone will love your quilt.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book ! Wonderful folkart designs., January 30, 2003

By	E. Pennington "Sew Unique" (Carmi, IL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I think all quilters should own this book. The directions are easy and include both rotary and template patterns. The pictures of the finished designs are vibrant and beautiful. I taught a beginning quilting class and we used this as our "textbook". Many of the quilts featured can be completed in just a few hours. Also, my favorite part of the book is how the quilts are shown on display. These pictures offer great decorating ideas.
