Product Description
This is a precious collection of beautiful quilted gifts for every occasion, including birthdays, mother's day, weddings and Christmas.
Create elegant home accents using pieced patchwork and applique, all with Barri Sue Gaudet's stylish country charm.
The complexity of each project reflects the amount of notice you might receive for an occasion, meaning gifts for a dinner party's hostess are quick-to-stitch and presents for a new born baby are more heirloom.
Embellish your designs with embroidery for an extra special personal touch that friends and family will adore.

I'm an avid craft book buyer, but, if I'm honest, most remain on the shelf after the first browse through. This book is different. It's full of gorgeous, but manageable, designs for all sorts of occasions. One really useful feature is that the author has given approximate timings for each of the projects, which will be very helpful for when we want to make a gift but have limited time. Projects vary between a couple of hours to ten days or so.It's certainly inspired me to start crafting instead of just dreaming!

Once again David & Charles have published a wonderful craft book. This book contains many great ideas for gifts to give family and friends,or to make for yourself, and range from gifts for a baby through to someone of ninety plus.
Although it would add to the cost of the book,it would be nice to have the templates full size rather than reduced by 50%, they could then be traced off rather than the need to have them photocopied.,

I sent for this book because I like to make small quilted gifts that people I give them to will use. This book is full of - as another reviewer said - twee little projects - OK if you like soft, felt, pretty things strewn around your house but not much use for the practical person, who gets on with things! I felt (forgive the pun) I rather wasted my money and there weren't any items I might be tempted to make.

A little treasure of a book.
I'm a keen sewer, but I get quite disappointed with the standard of crafting in some books that I purchase.I thought the quality of stitching in this book was wonderful. Read more

Just the best!
I have many sewing books, and to be honest, I am disappointed with most of them. I look through and see seams that don't match, sewing that my children could do. Read more

Small Quilt Projects
This is a lovely book to leaf through with lovely ideas - my only concern is that they are all a bit 'fiddly' so I am not sure how many one would actually make!
