Carrie Hall Blocks, 2 Jun 2000
By Lynn A. Rash - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Carrie Hall Blocks (Hardcover)
This is an excellent resource book for those interested in quilt history. The more than 800 blocks were made between 1900-1935. Both pieced and appliqued blocks are shown in color. The pattern section of more than 200 blocks range from easy level to difficult. The template section is very easy to use. Each block is shown in color and then in sections with all template numbers listed. All blocks in this section have been converted to more standard sizes and could be converted to other sizes with relative ease by any quilter. A fantastic book and a must for any quilter's personal library!

Carrie Hall Blocks, 22 Mar 2000
By aealexan@aol.com - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Carrie Hall Blocks (Hardcover)
An excellent collection of blocks. The book shows color thumbnails of each block. A section of the book has construction diagrams and there are also pattern pieces for many of the blocks included. A wonderful source of inspiration for use with the reproduction fabrics available today and for those people who belong to quilt block exchange groups.

Historically accurate and informative, 18 April 2002
By "jo_in_dundee" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Carrie Hall Blocks (Hardcover)
If you are interested in quilt history or in the names of traditional quilt blocks, this book is an invaluable tool. Carrie Hall sewed and collected various quilt blocks along with their names in what is now an encyclopedia of quilt history. I have used this book both for inspiration in my own quilt block making and also for historical interest (which blocks were named after political events, etc). Definitely one to have on your quilt book shelf.
