Title: lots of ideas, but measurements are off
Review: At first I really loved this book. It has tons of ideas and blocks that I had never seen anywhere else before. I have a few dozen quilts under my belt, so I'm not exactly a novice, but I'm no expert, either. The problem came when I started trying to make the quilt blocks in this book. The first two I tried had incorrect measurements, but were salvageable. The third one I tried was so distorted that there was no fixing the pattern, and I had to end up re-designing my whole quilt into something totally different. I'm keeping the book for ideas, but I'll be checking elsewhere for measurements.I would recommend the Around The Block series by Judy Hopkins. So far, all the blocks I've used from her books have been spot on!
