Tradition With a Twist: Variations on Your Favorite Quilts

Rating:
Summary: The best quilting book I own
Review: I am a novice quilter with minimal skills and a love of color. This book allows me to get the type of result I can see in my mind but don't really have the skill to put together on my own. I've made the Bloomin' Nine Patch, and seen three others, and all are striking. I'm now doing the Double Irish Chain, and have plans for two others from this book. I recommend it to other novices, as it is clear and specific, and the quilts are very impressive.

Summary: Beautiful watercolor effects quickly
Review: I just love this book! Teaches strip quilting as a way to create many traditional quilting patterns such as Irish Chain & Boston Commons or "watercolory" quilts. I made a Blooming Nine Patch using Japanese fabrics that's only my second quilt but looks beautiful.

Review: I love this book. The directions are very clear. I've made one of the quilts in this book. The quilt I made (Sunshine & Shadows) looks like it took me forever to make but it only took me three days to cut and piece the entire queen sized quilt. I've recommend this book to anyone that's interested in making an irish chain type of quilt. Blanche Young you're great!

Summary: Thanks to these two ladies, I'm now a quiltaholic.
Review: My best friend just made her first quilt with this book. It was so impressive, that not only was I inspired to start quilting, but also her local quilt shop put it on display. I have never quilted before, but this book, with its easy instructions, assists you in becoming creative and gives you the confidence to make your own prizewinner.
