Maggie Malone has put together one of the most comprehensive pattern books ever. One of the unique features is a color index in the front of the book showing each of the 120 designs in color. Readers can select patterns easily and turn to the indicated pages to learn the range of expertise required. Each pattern in labelled Easy, Moderate or Difficult. Tables are provided for each pattern, listing the number of pieces per block and per quilt for each fabric and the yeardage required. Pattern pieces are full size and instruction are in clear, simple language.

Students of quilting lore will be pleased to note that whenever possible the author has provided information on the origin of the various quilts. Although some of the traditional and classic designs will be familiar, many will be new to most readers.

Some patterns examples are: Hunter's Star, Kansas Dust Storm, Grandma's Hopscotch, Lindy's Plane, Missouri Puzzle, Flywheel. Waste Not, Spider's Den, Maryland Beauty, Loop the Loop, Exploding Stars, Pickle Dish, Nebraska, God's Eye, Feathered Star, Madam X, Lady of the White House, Indian Patch, Saw Blades, ...... and much, much more.
