Geometric Gems: Quilts from Diamonds, Circles, and Squares (Paperback)
By (author) Cathy Wierzbicki

I have been looking at the videos on you-tube and seen 2 of her designs. Very interesting. I cannot see any of the other designs inside the book. Is it worth buying? Have YOU made something from her book and if so, is it on this site so i can see other designs. Appreciate your help.

I always try to find out what is inside as I have been burned too often. Try this: http://www.connectingthreads.com/Boo...s__D45151.HTML

If you go to amazon, you can look at the table of contents and some of the other pages from that book.
