Interestign Quilting books

interesting quilting books I saw online

1. Log Cabin With a Twist
by Barbara T. Kaempfer

I checked it out a little at Amazon. Has anyone seen this book? Are the blocks as difficult as they look?? I think I 'd like to try it out


2. Totally Tubular Quilts: A New Strip-Piecing Technique
by Rita Hutchens

I saw this one at the same place. The quilt on th ecover looked interesting. I have done strip piecing before and I think I would like to try some in this book maybe.

3. Color Play: Easy Steps to Imaginative Color in Quilts
by Joen Wolfrom, Kandy Petersen (Illustrator)

Here's one that claims to work with color in interesting ways. I'd like to learn to do a watercolor or color wash technique like this or the one I saw on the cover of:

4. Strip-Pieced Watercolor Magic: A Faster, New Approach to Creating 30 Watercolor Quilts
by Deanna Spingola, Lisa McKinney (Illustrator), Laurel Strand (Illustrator)

I have been looking a lots of these kinds of quilts online and I have been looking into books to learn the technique.

I would like to to see a charm quilt. I know I have seen one, but I forget what it looked like. Maybe I saw it here?

Melissa, you did see a charm quilt here. Its the one that I'm doing with the 800 triangles. Thats a charm quilt.

I have a Log Cabin one that has different ways as well and it really is simple. I've never seen a Log Cabin that is hard to do, although they look that when when you see the patterns. Mine is called Creating Curves with Log Cabins. Its all in the layout!!
