Quilter's Newsletter has always impressed me with the eye-catching quilts on its covers. However,the patterns inside are typically the more simplilstic, run-of-the-mill design so I was anxious to have acess to construction details for some of the more stunning cover quilts. The book did not live up to my expectations.
The very first 22 pages of the book are devoted to a tedious history of the magazine. Of the 15 patterns included, only three or four are of the artistry and caliber that I had come expect from a QNM cover and hoped to use as inspiration for my own designs. In addition the instructions and colour placements are difficult to follow. For these reasons I feel the book is an overpriced collection of 15 patterns.
Rated by buyers -
It's a pleasant-enough book to get from the library and look at for 15 minutes, but I don't think it's worth the price to buy. These are one-of-a-kind quilts from the covers of Quilter's Newsletter Magazine and I can't imagine anyone wanting to replicate these patterns.
