I love the 20 to Make series and each time I am always amazed at
just how much goes into these fabulous books. Mini Quilt Blocks is
brilliant and I have made each block to accompany my review. The
blocks are small and simple to make, but are absolutely beautiful.
Choosing a colour scheme for each block is the best part, and as
you accomplish each one you will find your expertise grows and
grows. This is a fabulous book for beginner quilters, it covers
each process, such as cutting your pieces, piecing them together
and also handy hints and tips are given, so you really cannot go
wrong. If you are already an advanced quilter this is a book that
you find fun and the finished quilt is just divine. The blocks are
approx 5x5 inches. All very different and cover a whole range
of sewing skills. Highly recommended, it is the perfect stash
buster and absolutely worth a day or two sewing.
