The Big Book of Star-Studded Quilts: 44 Sparkling Designs Paperback – Illustrated, July 7, 2020

Pros-This book offers so many different ideas for the numerous star patterns or there for quilters. The fabrics that would work well in specific blocks are also provided. The sewing layout is easy to understand.I liked this so much, I bought one for the other two women I quilt with. Very inexpensive. I think shipping was more than the actual book costs.Cons-Not enough pages... I want more! 🤩

Excellent collection of star-based quilts (44 of them on 224 pages).I have to admit that I love quilting and have an extensive quilt book library that includes hundreds of books that I refer to often. (I don't keep the ones that I don't find of interest.) Because of my, um, book collection? I recognize (and already own) quite a few of the quilts in this book by favorite designers like Kim Diehl, Jo Morton, Kim Brackett, Jeanne Large and Shelley Wicks, Gerri Robinson, Carrie Nelson, and others. But, that's okay. If I don't have a certain designer's style in mine when I decide to start a new quilting project, I can simply turn to a compilation book like this Star-Studded Quilts book.The book is broken down into three sections: Small Quilts, Lap Quilts, and Bed Quilts.Cutting and piecing instructions are clear with relevant pictures. Since this is a quilt pattern book, there are no basic/general quilt making instructions.There are quilt designs suitable for all skill levels.Just about every quilt style is represented in this book. A few, maybe like three? include a bit of applique. The applique shapes are full size and appear with the quilt project. You use whatever applique method you prefer. Two of the three designs are wool applique (but you can always use quilting cotton instead). Star quilts are typically thought of as traditional in nature but several of the designs would likely appeal to quilters who are interested in a modern-type quilt that has simplified piecing, fewer fabrics and more white space.If I were offered purchasing do-overs, would I buy this book again? You betcha!

The book I ordered arrived in a timely manner, in new condition as advertised. I will order from this seller again.

This book gives me a new set of quilt patterns to choose from. I'm really excited to start on one of them.The only downside (and I'm not sure who is at fault for this) was that multiple orders were sent together and the other item was a liquid, that leaked, and the book was damaged. It's still usable so I didn't make a fuss.

Liked it all! Covers a lot. Descriptive.

Great book

Present for my wife. Very quick shipping.

What a nice collection of star quilt designs. Can’t wait to make something from this book. Many top designers, lots to choose from here. Well worth the price.
