The fabrics are beautiful.... love the combination. I have a favorite book that I hand to my loved ones when I'm planning on making a quilt for them, "Leisure Arts Presents Encyclopedia of Classic Quilt Patterns". I tell them to pick the quilt and then I make it. The last one I did was for my daughter.... a cathedral window. That one took some time. But she LOVES it so it was worth it. There are 101 quilts in that book with beautiful pictures of the finished quilts and all the instructions. I love that book so much that I have one at my winter house and one at my summer house.
