  Pizzazz Your Quilts April 28, 2008 Great idea book! I love the way the author shows you how to showcase fabric. If you bought a piece of fabric because you love it and don't want to cut it into little pieces, you can keep part of it intact and highlight it with nine-patch squares to create a lovely quilt with your favorite fabric highlighted by the your pieced design of coordinating fabric.
  Fun and flexible March 29, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am a beginning quilter and this book freed me to do my own thing. I used 3 plus wildlife panels and now have a wonderful wall hanging. I did not do it in a day but in two weeks I did cut, sew and quilt the wall hanging. Spectacular results for me! I highly recommend the book.
  Great way to use some focus fabrics January 28, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book helps you use your favorite focus or thematic fabrics to best advantage. It provides lots of variety and many layout options. Each quilt can look different even though it isn't.
  Another Great One January 7, 2008 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
Another Christmas present I was looking forward to receiving. It too was a used book, but turned out to be NEW. The shipper had it here in 3 days and I was eagerly checking out the information inside. Can't wait to get a "hurry-up" project finished. Way to go Judy. Keep up the good work.
  Quilting with Pizzazz! November 24, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am new to quilting, and wanted a book that would help me make my first full sized quilt. There is nothing like seeing a beautiful quilt you've just successfully completed to motivate you further! This book fits the bill exactly.
The author's quilts are really beautiful,yet very fast and easy to run up on the machine. The quick technique for making 9-patch is really excellent, with the option of rail-fence pieces for even speedier stitching. The instructions are clear and well illustrated, and guidelines are included if you want to make a different size. The finished quilt has a very "landscaped" look, which I love. However, the technique can be adapted to almost any look you want.
This book is an excellent purchase for a beginner. I'll be making a few more of these before I move on to something more complex.
