Country Comforts: Quilts for Casual Living
This book is full of quilts with country charm. Many of the quilts are scrappy--a look I'm drawn to over and over--but Cheryl goes a step further by adding cotton or wool applique to really create an eye-catching design. I was especially drawn to the quilt called Days and Nights of Wine and Roses with its scrappy mediums and dark fabrics assembled in a Barn Raising pattern while the scrappy lights leave plenty of room to show off the fun applique. You will find old favorites, like Churn Dash, Bear Paw, and Basket blocks, put together in interesting ways. Add in applique of flowers, hearts and stars and there is something for everyone who wants to add a touch of country to their quilts. --connectingthreads.com
