Simple Traditions: 14 Quilts to Warm Your Home

Perfect product. Great patterns

This has to be the most beautiful quilt book I have ever seen. The settings and pictures are amazing. The quilt projects seen to be within my reach and doable. The directions are very clear and exact. Not sure I'm ready to take on that much applique but when I am I know where to look. The only thing I wish had been included was a chart for making each of the quilts in different sizes.

Beautiful projects to make using this book. The slightly used book was in Excellent condition and I am so glad I purchased it. Photos of the quilts were wonderful and I am looking forward to making several of them for my home. I really like Kim Diehl's style and fabric choices. All her quilts will be a wonderful addition to any home.

Kim Diehl is an applique goddess and I love her designs as well as her books. I am working on one of her projects now and her instruction is easy to understand. My dear husband bought me this and when it arrived even he went through the book, with me waiting impatiently to get my hot little hands on it!

So many cute quilts. I did the one on the front cover but switched the applique from material to wool. It turned out beautiful.

I have enjoyed this book so much and the talent of Kim Diehl.I have already made two of the quilts from this book and plan to make more.I felt Kim's instructions were very easy to understand which is important if you want itto turn out anything like hers.

Love the designs!

This was a gift for my Quilting Mother. Great book, lots of very good ideas. Make one of these quilts and you will have a treasure. She loved this book.

A well titled book, cosy traditional country style quilts, made with deep gentle shades of fabrics which read plain (although most do have some pattern on) and look warm. Styles are original and many have applique on them somewhere - most not as much as the one on the front cover. There are some lovely borders too - I like the "parcel tag" shapes on the cover one, another has pieced rectangles which resemble coloured pencils and others have vines appliqued onto deep borders.Another thing I like about the book is the varied sizes of the finished items. Smallest are a couple of wall hanging/dolls quilts, another is 36" x 36", a couple are around the 50" to 60" size, next up are around 65" to 75" and on up to a couple of full size single and doubles with the largest being 103" square.This is a book to provide lovely country kitchen style quilts, wonderful for picnics, comfy car covers for children and outdoor events where a small quilt tucked around brings real comfort.With many books I see designs and decide they'd look better in other colours, deeper borders etc - these I like just as they are - except for the one on the front! I'd prefer the centre panel to be 4 directional but that's an easy problem to solve so for me the book's a winner.

Anche questo come l altro l ho trovato pieno di idee nuove e brillanti x le persone che fanno di questo un hobby una passione e fantastico ben scritto

Comme d'habitude avec Kim Diehl, livre magnifique.Tous les modèles sont à faire, tout est beau.Le plus difficile est le choix : lequel faire en premier !!
