Superb and sublime - By: K. Platt, 17 Nov 2008 
Lynne Edwards is a renowned name in quilting, both as an inspirational teacher & an artist. She has won many awards. In this book she fully explores one of the loveliest & one of her favourite quilting techniques - Cathedral Windows.
This glorious book shows over 25 projects from heirloom quilts, walll hangings, cushions, bags & quick to make pincushions. Often in a book of this kind, with work shown by the author & other collaborative artists, you can sometimes find that you only like one or two projects. That is not the case with this book. All the projects are exciting & will inspire you to get stitching straight away. These projects are very adaptable too. If you are new to quilting, start with one of the smalller projects. I'm sure this book will soon have you hooked. For beginners & experienced quilters alike, the instructions are easy-to-follow with clear diagrams & good photos of the finished projects.
Lynne Edwards & the other artists involved in this book, bring a beautiful sense of colour to the projects that the non-colorist can imitate. Lynne shares her secrets on making borders for this type of quilting, which is usuallly a borderless technique because of the way it is made. The basic method is explored further with suggestions on how to expand or simplify the technique. Learn the tips, techniques & short cuts of a true professional.
The one square folded cathedral window, the folded flowers, windmills & more have become favourites with me. This is a fascinating book with many projects that will keep you busy & inspire you to think up your own designs. I know I shalll be trying quite a few. Surprisingly, there is no suppliers' list in this 138 page book.
