Actually made quilts from this book! submitted by Marian on August 25, 2018, 9:27am I've borrowed this book several times and made 3 quilts from it. They're easy and quite striking in solids or reads-as-solid fabrics. On top of that, I used the quilts to practice machine quilting using some of the designs from Angela Walters' book, Shape by Shape (first volume), which the library had in its collection at the time.
