Designs are based on a fun approach to piecing that is very forgiving. The tecniques work well for scrappy quilts, planned color & print quilts, art quilts and more.
Insights are shared to help with fabric selection, about pre-washing vs not-pre-washing, and more.
Instructions are provided with good visuals for basic construction of blocks, squaring up, sewing the quilt top and adding borders.
There are a number of beautiful photos for the quilt designs, using a variety of color waves and prints. Each of the primary block designs come with cutting instructions that work with a number of sizes (eg. 3", 6", 7", or 8" finished block).
There are four primary block designs (e.g. Band box, Around the Box, Field of Box, and Condo Box) that are perfect for scrappy or controlled quilts. You get to make the choice. These designs are also perfect for yousing a Layer Cake, or other 10" square packets.
Insight are also included to help you layout your blocks using a straight set vs diagonal set.
I hope you'll get a chance to check out this fun quilting book at your local quilt shop, or at Cozy Quilt Designs online store.

Love it!
Sounds fun and easy...my choice of quilts here lately. Thanks for sharing about her book.
That looks like a great book, fast and easy. I've been doing a lot of charity quilts lately, these look perfect for using up scraps and making quick quilts. Thanks I'm going to check it out.
Sharyn Craig's book looks like it has some fun designs in it! I get CozyQuilt's newsletter and always wish it was a store in my town as there is so much going on. Thanks for the great review.
Cutting instructions for different block sizes? That's great. Takes out the guessing/math... cool!
Hello,
I just recently discovered your blog -- it's both fun and informative. The Pets on Quilts Show inspired my first visit. I love the photo with the squirrel! Is that your photo? I wanted to send it to two friends who take lots of photos and I wanted to give credit to the photographer. Thanks.
I love those designs. Look fairly easy.
