This is the first quilting book I ever bought. I bought it with allowance and baby sitting money when I was 13 or 14. That was about 1959 or 1960. The cover on mine is different from yours. I poured over that book so many times in the next few years, dreaming of the day I could actually guy enough fabric to try making a quilt.hardenbrookgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18167805286270896654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18204679.post-28173856256030974082007-02-21T05:07:00.000-08:002007-02-21T05:07:00.000-08:00Hi, thanks for your comments on my blog.

Mine hasn't got patterns for ALL the blocks pictured on the front cover which I thought a bit strange!

It's a good resource book, and fun to read and look at the drawings.<BR/>I made a hand pieced Jack In The Box from that book..*VBS*<BR/>Love your Hot City Nights, they are looking very hot indeed!!
