Another used book find from QuiltFest 2013.
I did not even look inside this book--I just bought it. I have a Jewel Box in the works, but Eleanor has such a good reputation for ease of construction and the price was right, so I bought it.
I was surprised to read reviews that said her directions were difficult to follow, and people said they just looked at the pictures instead of reading the words. I hope to get to work again on this quilt this summer, and I will spend the day before reading about Eleanor's way to do it.
I have been lying low and just making plans rather than actually doing much sewing. It is much easier on the back. Here is a book I won at a recent guild meeting. It has a lot of interesting ideas.
But I have to admit, my favorite recent book acquisition is this one by Eleanor Burns.
She is the master of technique. Her sister, Patty Knoechel, came to the guild and spoke and before I knew what I was doing, I owned one of these books. It has already given me a lot of pleasure.
