Reviews
I love the way this book gives you two options for each quilt.You can either use scarps or yardage to create some amazing quilts. I love Joyce's designs, they are so refreshing. There are 8 different projects in the book and all of them are made the two ways. Joyce takes you through making each of the quilts, describing how to make each block and then to make each quilt.
There are diagrams to help you to complete each of the projects. I love the fact that she also includes different quilt tops that you can sew. The designs are beautiful and add to each of the designs. With each of the designs you are provided with an outline of the design so that you can colour it and create you own design. I love the striking designs that use simple processes to create the most amazing quilts. I love this book. It gives you so many option and makes it so that you can choose whether you want to use your scraps or use yardage. This is one book that I want to make most of the quilts withing the book. I am so excited by the designs. * Crochet Addict UK *
