Summary: Great!
Comment: If you enjoy Better Homes and Gardens' other books and magazines you will really like this book! Each of the many designs in this book has a large color picture of the quilt, clear directions, and each quilt has a diagram of 'optional sizes' so that you can make the quilt any size. The end of the book has 14 pages of information for the beginner quilter. Along with complete and concise directions and the basic directions in the back, this book would be a good choice for beginners. There is also a wonderful variety of designs including the tradional Log Cabin and Nine Patch blocks along with more challenging designs like Robbing Peter to Pay Paul and Storm at Sea. This book also contains patterns for Red Work and Applique lovers.
Another great feature of this book, something that as a quilter I look for, is that each design has 3 or 4 variations. For instance the Robbing Peter to Pay Paul quilt is first represented in the classic red and white, but there is also a pillow in stripes and plaids and also a tablerunner made in a floral yellow patterned fabric--all of the same design! Laura Boehnke, quilt tester of American Patchwork & Quilting Magazine, does what she does best by designing the alternate choices in color and design for the patterns.
For individuals looking for a book that has a great number and variety of patterns and for individuals needing inspiration to see patterns worked in different color schemes, this is a great book! I am very glad I purchased this!
