However, I found the patterns rather difficult for the bed quilts. Makes me wish that this book was on paper/foundation piecing instead of the use-photocopied-templates-to-cut-all-the-weird-pieces-and-keep-your-fingers-crossed-it-works method. I would have given this book a five if it wasn't for this "problem."
At least Denyse clearly illustrates every part and provides very clear patterns to be photocopied and enlarged, even if many of them are for the most advanced quilter. And the section covering quilting techniques in general was well written and very concise.
