Another beautiful Hawaiian quilt book, for yourself or a quilting friend, by Elizabeth Root

Whether you like cats or not this benchmark book will no doubt be a favorite for years to come. For the first time you will find a collection of larger wall size to bed patterns in one book. All with full size patterns on two pull out inserts. Each has a corresponding miniature size pattern (which can be easily enlarged) showing multiple color adaptations and each has a coordinating pillow size block. The finished designs are shown illustrated and photographed.

So, putting up with London artist Peter Robinson's wonderful illustrations of Elizabeth's cats (and cat friends) their stories and a little poem about each shouldn't be too much of a hardship when you realize that there are over $100 worth of new patterns included. No doubt you'll find many favorites from those included:

African Tulip   -   Breadfruit   -   Anthurium   -   Crown Flower   -   English Rose - Fish - Hono (Sea Turtle) - Hibiscus & Cat   -   Lily of the Valley   -   Poinsettia
