Precise instructions written to easily understand.
Making baby quilts for charity.

Great book
Here's my problem -- I work full time, and have an active family. Now a very close family friend is having a baby shower for her daughter in the next month. So far so good -- I can get one quilt done that fast. But then she announces that it is twins. I don't want to take shortcuts and make 'blah' quilts. And I do want to make quilts rather than purchase a gift. So I bought this book and I love it. The quilts at the beginning are very simple and appropriate for complete beginners. The quilts at the end are a little more complicated, and look lovely. The later quilts use triangles, which I would not recommend to a complete beginner. But even so, they will go together easily. I should be able complete 2 quilts if I can find 2 free evenings in the next couple of weeks.

I love this book!
I love this book! The instructions give you the amount of each fabric you need for the whole quilt (not just one block). Teaches you come quick shortcuts and are fast and cute quilts. The book shows you two different versions of the quilt, a bright colored one and a pastels one. Let's you see what the color options are. I wish there were more books like this one. I originally purchased this book almost 10 years ago and because it's one of my favorite books, I purchased it for my daughter who has starting piecing quilts.I was so happy to be able to find it on Amazon all these years later.

Lost my first and bought a 2nd
I love this baby quilt book. I have used it for years; so much I lost/misplace my 1st and bought a 2nd.My favorite gift to give somebody expecting is a quilt to go with their nursery, this book handles every aspect of simple easy to be made tops in a day! I have made from cutting to quilting and binding one of these in just 10 hours. And the response to the person receiving is the best feeling in itself!You will not be sorry if you are a beginner and just getting the hang of sewing the instrucstions are very detailed and explained very clearly. I would consider myself an exper sewer and still enjoy it. I make my own patterns and create a lot of quilts that way but this is easy peasy!Enjoy!

Great quilting primer
I bought this book as a companion to this author’s earlier baby quilt book. Both this and the first book are very good beginner primers for all parts of the quilt construction which translate very well to larger quilted pieces.

Wonderful, Wonderful, Wonderful
If you like to make baby quilts this is the book for you! There are so many beautiful baby quilts in this book and they are easy to make! I am a beginning quilter and have made 3 of the quilts in the book. The instructions are clear and easy and they even have arrows pointing in the direction of which way to press your seams. I really like the pictures of the different finished quilts shown in the book too, and the different variations of the same quilt. I have very little creativity when it comes to putting fabric together for a quilt but this book gives you some inspiration!

Favorite among my beginner quilt friends
I like to help my friends get started on their first quilt endeavors and this has become the favorite book to go to. I have several quilt books however this always seems to be the book they choose for their first quilt. It has quite a few pretty patterns with a few fabric choices for each one. There is a list of supplies and fabrics needed at the beginning of each pattern and the instructions are easy to follow as well.

Beware some similarities
I bought Ursula's 'Quilts For Baby' first and made quite a few quilts and still have others in the pipeline. They are easy to adapt to different materials and even to make them on a smaller scale. However, having now bought this book I find that some of the patterns are repeated or very similar in style: Courthouse Steps is in both books , Rails Fence and Triple Rails are similar, One Patch, Four Patch and Nine Patch are very similar. Easy Attic Windows and Double Attic Windows are similar. If you want extra practice in one type of design or variations on a theme, then you're ok but it might be worth bearing this in mind. I think where this book really comes into its own is where one quilt design is shown in different fabrics eg. pastels and then in brights, and it is interesting to see the differences. In some cases they look like different quilts! I have awarded this book four stars for the above reasons but there are quite a few new designs in here as well, such as the lovely 'Barney's Block', named after her beloved cat.

Brilliant book, with loads of useable quilt patterns.
