These quilts are fresh and fun and I enjoyed the touches of appliqué that are on some of the projects. While a few of the projects may appear more challenging, the techniques are really quite simple so even a new quilter with only a few quilts under her belt would be able to make these.
I have several favourites from this book and have already selected fabrics and partially completed the Birdhouse Welcome wall hanging, which will be perfect at our entryway. I also enjoyed A Pack of Posies table runner, with its effective use of half-square triangles and limited amount of fabric.
While I enjoyed all the projects in the book, I would have to say that my favourite is Home for the Holidays, with its cardinals sitting on a primitive pine tree. Yes, I'm a sucker for Christmas quilts, but this one is really an eye-catcher. Again, simple shapes and techniques, but the effect is wow!
