Review from Online Quilt Magazine, April 2018
This very comprehensive book with its "61 designs to finish your quilts with flair" will provide all the inspiration you need for your quilting. Loops and Lines, Spirals, Leaves, Flowers, Pictorial, Circles and Squares are all covered in this book. Being spiral-bound and with a double page spread per pattern, is an excellent way to see the whole design as you work through it step by step. At the end of each is even a grid so that you can practise drawing your designs. Lori explains her inspiration to quilt, but advises that you "make the designs your own". "Have fun while quilting" she says and remember - "A quilt without personality is just a blanket!" Lori has lots of suggestions for setting up to quilt; what tension, foot or needle and thread to use and then talks about doodling and planning motifs to suit your quilt. This book contains all you'll ever need to quilt with flair as promised, with excellent photos and explanations.
