Hi Maniac -- no - The Author is American - having written the Elm Creek quilt fiction books and she has also written a quilt book called Sylvia's Bridal Sampler - amongst other books. The blocks are 6" finished - and here are the links to the two books

IMO, the quality and complexity of her designs far exceed that of her novels.

O wow! Another Jane Stickle type! What size are the blocks with this one? Coming down to the finish line (in about a year) with "Jane" and want to do another similar!

Ah, I see its 6" blocks.

Dotty, I am making the Union Sampler quilt. I've only gotten the first row of blocks done. I belong to a group (5 of us) who are making the quilt at a local quilt shop every 2nd Saturday of the month. We meet today! It is really stretching my piecing skills!

Very interesting, Geri. I know nothing about her, other than from the bio on one of the novels. It's either luck or a gift to be in the right place at the right time, though, and she most definitely has been.
