The Standard Book of Quilt Making and Collecting by Marguerite Ickis: This is a “complete, easyto-follow guide that shows you how to make beautiful, useful quilts that you will be proud to own and display. Even if you are a beginner, you will soon find yourself quilting like an expert by following these clearly-drawn patterns, photographs, and stepby-step instructions. All the information you need is here, lucidly and thoroughly explained. You learn how to plan the quilt, the number of blocks to fit a bed, how to select the pattern to harmonize with the design and color of the room, and how to choose materials; how to cut, sew, make appliqued patterns, patchwork, and strips; how to make your own designs, and much more.. .There is full information on borders, quilting and tufting, and just about every other aspect of quilt-making.” □
