I have CD and book of LBB, and you are right, the CD really only prints out the patterns, rather than having to photocopy your book. But there are some directions for the blocks in the book, and the colour pics are good, and there are very helpful pages on choosing suitable fabrics forr best effect
If I do AOTH, I will make the blocks bigger. I can't see the point of doing all that work, to only get a lap sized quilt. If I make the blocks 9 or 10in, it will be double bed sized at the end, and those of you thinking of perhaps trying to machine applique, that size would also be more helpful.
I am waiting for my book so that I can check that it is reasonably possible to enlarge patterns etc. and will come back to you if any of you are hesitating.
