This book "Better Homes and Gardens 501 Quilt Blocks by Joan Lewis, Lynette Chiles, Edition 1995" has 501 Quilt Blocks that many of them are very beautiful but it does not give you the patterns to cut your fabric for each of the quilt blocks in this book at all. It gives you only a couple of patterns to cut your fabric to make a few of the quilt blocks in this book. Since you would like to make the beautiful quilt blocks in this book. I highly recommend this book if you can go to a quilter to make a pattern of each design of every quilt block in this book or make a photo copy of the quilt block you want to make in this book then enlarge or/and shrink the photo copy of the quilt block to the size of the quilt block that you will be quilting. Thereafter with the photo copy of the quilt block then use it as your quilt block pattern that you place it on a thin plastic and/or cardboard to trace the quilt block pattern on it the cut your quilt block pattern that you traced on a thin plastic and/or cardboard. Also thin plastic is better to use because its more durable than cardboard then you have your quilting blocks pattern in a plastic template and/or cardboard that you later put it in your fabric then cut your fabric with a quilting rotary cutter. Happy quilting.Read full review
