Geometric Gems: Quilts from Diamonds, Circles, and Squares

There's this pile of books sitting on my desk waiting for me to review.  Of course,
I have looked through every one of them, and picked out my favorites, and picked out future projects.   But, I need to review them, so you sweet people can gets books that fit your needs and will inspire you.

There are tumbling blocks, diamonds, circles, rectangles, etc.    And, although some of the quilts look complicated, Cathy Wierzbicki has made the process simple.

  1. I like the first one for its uniformity, the grey tones and diamond shapes. It almost looks Native American in those colors. I also like the last on in the row, the square in the square, with the quotes. (i"m guessing they are quotes since they are too small to read for me)
