Too many little triangles!

I was disappointed in the book. First, almost all of the quilts shown in the photo are made in the same dark color scheme. And what's worse, they all have too many little triangles for me! Also, the book is not very long, only 46 pages. There's a quilt or two that I like and maybe someday I'll make them. If you like dark red and brown triangles, you will love this book!

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors have appeared

A Real Cache Buster

I found Monique Dillard's book The Winners of the Block to be a very inspiring, well written and beautiful book on quilting. I made a pattern from the book Crazy Eights. It connected easily and looks great. Next on my to-do list, pinochles! Looking for a great way to use up your stash or leftovers? There is no better book than Fat Neighbors Winners. Plus it's a bargain, when was the last time you could buy 11 patterns for only $14? Trust me you will love this book!

Pros
  • A Decent Job
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Other

Monique Dillard writes great instructions and great diagrams

Monique Dillard writes great instructions. They are packed with vital indications and don't read like an encyclopedia. She makes all of her demo quilts and it shows because she made all the common assembly mistakes and warns against them in her instructions. I like it. There are eleven patchwork designs in this book, instructions and fabric requirements are given for the smallest size and each pattern contains the information needed to make the other, larger sizes. The patterns range from quite

Pros
  • So far satisfied
Cons
  • I will write later
