Summary: Quick, Easy Quilt That Looks Lovely
Review: I recommend this book to anyone who would like to be able to make a lovely quilt in a relatively short amount of time. Eleanor Burns' efficient, time-saving techniques are perfect for those of us who love quilts but aren't interested in long, drawn-out, complicated projects. When I bought this book, my sewing background consisted of three group sewing classes at the local fabric store. My only quilting experience was piecing together a pinwheel-design potholder. However, by using this book, I was able to sew my first quilt, a "Trip Around the World" baby quilt that turned out beautifully. I then used this book to piece together a queen-size "Trip Around the World" quilt top in just one Saturday (about 12 hours). Eleanor Burns' techniques are effective and easy to follow, and the results look terrific!

Summary: A wonderfully EASY system for making a quilt.
Review: This book shows just how ingenious Eleanor Burns really is. A remarkable method of graduating the pattern by UNSEWING tubes of material in different orders. There's also a video available out there that makes this even easier to follow, but the book alone is just fine.

Review: Well she has done it again. Eleanor Burns has made this quilt so easy. I had tried it once before and none of my squares matched at the points but this was almost effortless. The only thing that was a bit tricky was the unsewing, but after a try or two even that was simple. The results were wonderful and very fulfilling. It never ceases to amaze me how Mrs. Burns makes her quilts easy and fast. I made the double size in about 10 hours and was suprised at how easy the cutting requirements were in this particular quilt. This is one that you have got to try.
