 Great Book August 15, 2007

I checked out several other books from the library on pieced borders and I decided this one was probably the best. Diagrams and directions are good, and there are some awesome quilts in this book!

I have looked through the book but since I don't have a quilt in the works to try a pattern on, I cannot comment on the instructions for doing the pattern. The patterns that are illustrated look very good and gives a good choice of ideas to use.
Learn to Design Borders November 11, 2006

This book is great! But it's not for beginners, or timid quiltmakers. Some of the designs are rather complicated and time consuming. But oh boy, what a difference a beautiful border makes to your quilt! You'll find patterns, diagrams, tables of measurements, and colorful before and after pictures of lovely quilts with and without the borders. The authors are two of our most talented and well known teachers, designers, authors and quiltmakers. If you are looking for that perfect border for your newly made quilt you'll find it here. But easier books for new quilters seeking to learn how to make the perfect border are out there.
Wonderful book for the next level in your quilt! May 8, 2006

This book is an excellent example of how the intermediate level quilter can add additional zing to their quilts. Many beautiful borders have been given and offer a great deal of excitement for quilting borders.
