Customer Reviews

a real exhibition of quilts
I hesitated before buying this book without looking inside, could it be as good as the first I wondered, or would it be too similar? Don't worry, it's brilliant! It's really quite different from the first book, all very original and beautiful to read over a longer period of time. Although the presentation follows the first book the quilts lie before you like an exhibition, you really need to move around a bit more slowly and look at each one individually, there's lots to take in. Maybe the quilts are less easy to try for yourself than those in the first book, you'll be unable to match the authors' fabrics but for taking some careful steps on your own, away from kits and exact copies, these really are outstanding projects, both to look at and to set your mind racing!

Fantastic book
I pre ordered this book and wasn't disapointed when it arrived. I'm newish to quilting and would have found the projects ambisous at first but the instructions are clear, photos beautiful and like no other quilting book I have bought.
I think worth every penny!

Keep the world sewing

I had been looking for a Jelly Roll book and I am more than pleased with my purchase - I can now get to work with my jelly rolls.
The book is very explicit in its designs and more than I expected!
