Quilting Made Easy

Compared to most other foundation piecing books, this is a super bargain! Each block is not only pictured in fabric, but also in a full design so you can see what the overall effect will be once it is finished (which is great when deciding on fabric placement). In addition, most of the blocks are shown in alternate arragements and have a 4" and 2" size to photocopy (which helps cut down on photocopying costs and design angst, as it reduces the amount of enlarging/reducing you have to do). The designs range from very basic to the more complex, although there are not any extremely difficult ones. You may find some of the basics are repeats if you own other foundation piecing books, but the other hundred or so designs you won't have will make it well worth your while. This is a MUST HAVE for any foundation piecer's library!

This is a very good book on Foundation Piecing, but if you already own Davis/Schiffer's other three books in the Foundation Piecing Library, you do not need this one as it appears to be a subset of the three. ("Garden-Inspired...", "Hearts and Flowers..." and "Victorian...")
