Yes, I have made two of Pam Bono's quilts and I am in the process of making a third "Flying Home from Big Book of Quick Rotary Cutter Quilts". The hardest thing I find is the cutting of the material. Just remember to label everything and you'll be OK

YES I love her patterns, they fit amd seams match, Just be sure to put the pieces in baggies and label them, I have made all of them in the BIG BOOK..... I am going to her site now to see what is new.

I have made several of her large quilts and table toppers and the only thing I have found is that she is very detailed in her pictures and explanations which I honestly appreciate. Looking at so many pieces in a block can be intimidating but realize she is just covering every little step. Do one block and see for yourself - I love her books and patterns and am getting ready to do another of hers and make it into a king size.

I made two of them, 2008 BOM's. They are beautiful but way too tedious, and with way too many pieces (hundreds 7/8" square). I have one of her books but would have to think really hard before trying another one of her patterns.

I have made 2 of her quilts out of darkness and pieces of baltimore. Her patterns have a zillion pieces they are not hard but you do have to pat attention and I think someone mentioned a very accurate 1/4 seam. I would like to do another but when I am not so busy. Hope this helps.

I have made several of her patterns (Out of Darkness) and as long as you follow the directions carefully as there's lots of little pieces, you should do fine.

I have done 2 of hers! The Sunflowers was the first quilt project I ever started .. yeah, well, that's just me. 18 months later it was on my daughters bed! But it was from one of their books on rotary cutting and I loved their methods and instructions. The 2nd one was a BOM and started with simple blocks to much more complicated ones.

I agree to trying just one block. Good luck!
