Love to quilt but don’t have time to create a queen or king-sized bed quilt? Then this book will provide you with 15 small quilts just for the amount of time you have.

Each project starts out with a blurb about the quilt. On the same page is the cutting and materials list which are easy to understand. The next page is a full color photo of the quilt.

The next page is a graphic of the quilt with the finished block and quilt size underneath. The instructions are next with graphics to help you understand the written instructions. I love the fact that the author tells you how the project was quilted but also says you can quilt as desired. Tips and suggestions are set off in a sashed box.

These projects are created so if you have more time or wish to enlarge the finished item, it is easily done by adding more blocks or strips.

I love this book! It presents great ideas for quick quilts I can make using my scraps. Jo goes beyond giving us beautiful patterns - she shows us how the quilts can be used to decorate our house adding warmth, whimsy, and style to our lives.

Jo Morton teaches us how to create a pleasing palette as we work with our fabrics, so our results will be as gorgeous as hers.

The designs in Jo's Little Favorites II are simple yet interesting, including machine piecing and applique'. If you are a beginner, you will learn a lot about quilt design, fabric placement, and traditional piecing techniques. If you are a quilting pro, you will read this book then rush to your studio filled with ideas, will quickly whip up small projects to be used in your home or to give as gifts, and might also get her first Jo's Little Favorites book!

Jo Morton

Well known for her "Jo's Little Women Club" patterns, Jo Morton is a quiltmaker, designer for Moda Fabrics, teacher, and best-selling author. Her use of color and design, as well as her fine stitchery, gives her quilts the feeling of having been made in the nineteenth century. Her quilts have appeared in numerous magazines, and she's made several television and online appearances including on HGTV's Simply Quilts, PBS's Love of Quilting, and The Quilt Show.

In 1980 Jo took her first quilting class, and in 1985 she created her first "made to look old" quilt. She determined early on that if she ever hoped to make all the quilts she wanted to make, they would have to be small, and this size works perfectly in her tiny 1929 bungalow.
