SUMMARY- The chapter on America's master quilters covers Ruth Heyser, Lenda DuBose, Liz Porter and Marianne Fons, and The Monday Quilters. There's always a lot of eye candy in BHG books and special interest magazines, and editor Gerald Knox was a veteran at producing them. I don't think you can ever be disappointed with a impulse buy of one of their craft publications. Make sure that this one still has its pattern sheets intact, though. They came in a separate purple folder tucked in the back that would be easy to get lost from the book.
