 Don't Let the Title Fool You January 4, 2009
Underneath that sunny smile and cheery voice is an intelligent and determined woman with a good sense of humor. Thanks to Eleanor Burns and her long term dedication to her craft, strip quilting keeps getting better and better. This hardbound book is filled with great pictures of many of her best ideas- "simplify the process, be brave, and enjoy your own creativity." Quilt top piecing becomes a breeze because her directions are explicit, logical and easy to follow even if you are a novice. Warning, if you ever listen to her on t.v. her voice and demeanor may drive you a bit bonkers. None the less, Eleanor is a quilting expert worth her weight in gold. Her methods always make patterns that look difficult, easier for big chickens like me!
So easy to follow. December 28, 2008
Eleanor Burns is wonderful. Her books are so easy to follow, the directions are easy for beginners, but not too simplified for experts.
One of Eleanor Burns best! June 25, 2008
I recently purchased this book and I love it. It has some of Eleanor's best patterns, lots of strip quilting and not too many "tools." I would advise anyone, except perhaps expert quilters, to buy this book.
one of the best E.B. books May 6, 2008
I have many eleanor Burns books, all which are easily comprehended and accurate, but this book takes you inside the world of Eleanor Burns. It is a must have for "quilt in a day" fans. i can't wait to try out some of the patterns.
Best Quilt in a day book yet January 14, 2008
This book as a TON of wonderful projects the look hard but with Eleanors instructtions and short cuts even a beginning quilter can make.
I would recommend this book to any quilter or wanta be quilter.
