I'm sure you all have heard of this book right?
It's soooo good! And authored by three of my favorite quilters:
Swim, Bike, Quilt - Katie
Freshly Pieced - Lee
Fresh Lemons Quilts - Faith
I had the pleasure of making a block for a charity quilt using one of the patterns from the book.
I chose the Wheel of Fortune block and made it low volume/scrappy.
The best part about this blog hop was we all made blocks and sent them to Faith, Lee and Katie and they are making them into charity quilts! Isn't that awesome?! I can't wait to see how they turn out!
This book is laid out so well and gives you great ideas for each block. All the templates are very clear and it comes with a cd (which I LOVE) so you can print the templates right out.
I'm thrilled with how they took traditional blocks and gave them a modern twist.
It really is such a great encyclopedia/workbook to have on hand. I have a few more blocks from the book that I really want to use to make full quilts.
Plus they have pillows, zip pouches and mini quilt projects along with a bunch of full sized quilts.
