I received some very good tips about fabric selection in the book The Weekend Quilter. I was unfamiliar with the effect fabric with geometric designs has on the way one's eyes travel over the surface of a quilt, or the impact monochromatic prints have compared with solids in the overall look of a quilt. The author gave, what I am sure are very clear instructions regarding some quilting basics like creating a straight edge before cutting from a new piece of fabric;cutting strips, squares, triangles and rectangles; and hand quilting among other topics. For me the directions were difficult to visualize, but I typically need to watch someone perform tasks of this type rather than just hear words directing motions. (I have made 10 to 15 baby and lap quilts, and am not a total novice, but still had difficulty visualizing from these instructions.) The illustrations were not helpful to me, but would likely be so for most. I browsed through the twenty-six patterns included in this book, and saw two or three I might like to make. I did like that more than one color scheme was given for many of the quilt patterns.
I am grateful to Landauer Publishing for providing me with a copy of The Weekend Quilter in exchange for my honest opinion. I was under no obligation to provide a positive review and received no monetary compensation.
