Quilter and Moda Fabrics designer April's first book is a great one for those who struggle to see past fabric choices in a quilt design. Bedroom Style, Perfectly Pieced hedges its bets on 10 different designs interpreted into five different styles - that makes 50 quilts altogether! The `styles' have been cleverly chosen not to alienate any quilter, and you should be able to spot your own take on patchwork style across different designs without feeling too boxed in. After all, they don't just span modern and traditional, but encapsulate different colour palettes, moods and interior styles, all caught in the beautiful bedrooms photographed for the book * Quilt Now * May 2015 April Rosenthal's book is playful in tone, but incisive and technically flawless. She presents us with ten quilt patterns, all meant to be made and used as bed quilts rather than just displayed. Not content to just provide instructions for her ten beautiful quilts, she also provides five very distinctive and different styles to realise them with, bringing the possible combinations up to 50. This clever and unusual approach to a quilting project book is a away of circumventing that feeling we sometimes have, where we might like a quilt pattern but not the chosen fabrics or colours, and dismiss the project. The author rightly bemoans this, and does something about it! There's a light-hearted multiple option quiz at the start of the book to help you decide which of the five styles you might be suited to try (the choices are Coastal, Farmhouse, Global Eclectic, Minimal Zen and Vintage Retro). We love the author's style and her quilting is wonderful. Treat yourself and make a bed quilt for yourself from this wonderful book, you'll love every second. * Popular Patchwork *
