Summary: Worth flipping through, once, but just a little too sweet
Review: I'm glad I took this book out of the library before buying it. On the plus side, it offers suggestions for gifts beyond the straightforward baby quilt; for instance, one quilt design also has instructions for making matching baby bibs, and another has a matching stuffed animal to accompany the quilt. That's quite charming. However, the designs are just a little too "sweet" for my taste.
More importantly, the book isn't quite sure whether it's for beginners or for more advanced quilters. It devotes 35 pages to basics, but the project recipes are surprisingly sparse. For instance, the instructions say to make 6.5" square blocks, but never tell you "you'll need 2 yards of Fabric 1, 3 yards of Fabric 2."
I did get some good ideas from this book. However, to make a baby quilt for my nephew's first child, I'm going to turn elsewhere for guidance.
