This book is interesting with the projects it offers! I am enjoying it, it's offerings are a bit different then the typical primitive quilting book. The colors are wonderful!! I really like the projects, in fact I'm going on a quilt shop road trip w some quilting pals and it's our first one ( I hope of many) I'm making them a momento  (from this book) with the date and letters from the shop we're going too.  Just bc it's something special and the pin keep is special and every time they use it they will remember our trip!! Sweet book!!!'

The designs are primarily created to use on a domestic home sewing machine.  The book provides the video link and it is neat to pick out a design from the book and then get on the computer to view the video demonstrating how to do it. The instructions are very clear.  One little drawback is that the fabric, for some of the designs, is turned around for each row.  That will not work well for longarm quilting machines. With a little creativity, the quilter can get around this. The pictures in the book are clear and lovely to enjoy. This book is definitely very welcome in my quilt book libary.

I don't purchase many quilt books but this one caught my eye. The quilts are 'simply' beautiful in their design and finishing. Full of creative inspiration. Recommend for quilters of every level. Must buy fabric now!

I have been a big fan of the "look" of the quilts from Australia's Material Obsession shop, books, and blog.  Sarah Fielke is now traveling a different path, and has published this delightful book with some fun designs in her unique (to my American eyes) combination of fabrics. There isn't as much "matching" done in the Australian designs.  There seems to be absolutely no fear of putting many different styles of fabrics together.  The end result is that every quilt looks like a totally unique piece of folk art!  This book has a great variety of simple and complex designs, piecing and applique.  There is a nice "freshness" to the color combinations, and the quilts don't look like each other.  Ms. Fielke has a lot of description of the designs, nice directions for assembly, and generally has done a great job creating a quilt book that isn't a replica of others.

Two Patch Scrap Quilts is a beautiful book by Pat Yamin, published by AQS Publishing.

It includes the templates and instructions for 21 two-patch quilts. Pat also sells the acrylic templates for all these two-patches, making the cutting and sewing a breeze. I've made many of Pat's quilts with her templates and she makes the most difficult quilts, with curves and set-in seams, quite easily doable. But more impressive than the instructions are the beautifully photographed quilts. I enjoy just leafing through the book over and over, gazing at how wonderfully diverse can be quilts made with just two different shapes. For the more advanced or comfortable quilter, some of the shapes can be rotary cut without templates, for example the Spinning Spools quilt is made with a 4 1/2" center square. But I also like the slots/dots on the templates, which help enormously with set-in seams, indicating exactly where to start and stop sewing. I also love the simple tables with instructions, which include three different sizes for each quilt, so at a glance one can see the yardage needed for each quilt. But for me the true charm of these types of quilts is digging into the scrap bag, finding pieces big enough to cover the templates, and making scrappy quilts the "new" old-fashioned way, with old scraps and new tools.  I expect to try many of the quilts in this lovely book.

This is a lovely book by a pair who have collected and obviously love Civil War quilts.  Their designs are based on those popular in the era, but to showcase, of course, the reproduction fabrics of today.  Most are scrappy.  None is large enough for a queen bed, but obviously could be enlarged.  Most are lap quilts or wall hangings.  The color choices are quite lovely, and the instructions straight-forward.  Of all the books Ive looked at for Civil War era quilts, this is my favorite so far.  I would enjoy making at least 12 of the 19--not that I will, of course, there being too many quilts to make and too little time. But I will get at least two or three of them made!

The projects are beautiful and not very complicated.  Instructions are clear and well written.  I want to make just about ever quilt in this book.

I like the concept of quilting as you go, or should I say reversible quilting. There is lots of hand sewing in order to complete the projects. The instructions are easy to follow, however, you will have to tab certain pages as each project refers you back to a different section in the book. I have had fun making several table runners from this book.  The colors and photos are beautiful.  Great book to have in your personal library.

Fabric is beautiful.  The largest medallion is about 12 1/2 inches, so makes a huge statement.  Secondary pattern is more oblong than square. Colors are exquisite.  Would consider this quilt shop quality and design.  If interested, don't hesitate to purchase.

A nice variety of quilt patterns along with excellent guide lines for an accompanying message to express joy or encouragement.

I bought this book for the alphabet quilt shown on the cover.  It was relatively easy and turned out fabulous.  I used bright colors and instead of the numbers in the corners, I used my embroidery machine to sew zoo animals reading books.  A photo is attached.  There are some other cute designs as well but this was my favorite.  I think you are sure to find something in this book that you will like.

I am very impressed with this book. I bought it because I saw a quilt made with fabrics other than Christmas. Looking I am looking forward to making different projects.
