This book is clearly written, well-organized and easy to follow. The hardest part is lining up the motifs on the six layers of fabric but once done, the directions are clear and the results are magnificent. A friend and I worked together and created a one-of-a-kind quilt that has us both amazed. You will never look at fabric the same way again! We chose a very bold Hawaiian print that has turned into an incredible piece of art. Each hexagon block can be put together 3 different ways and with 108 blocks the fun comes in the arrangement. You will be so pleased with your results. A great read even if you never make one of these quilts. A great book to add your quilting library.

Maxine's technique intrigued me so I ordered the book. I've read it again and again. When I visit a fabric store now, I look at fabric in a whole different way. Now that I've finally found the "perfect" fabric after weeks of looking, I can hardly wait to start. I highly recommend this book if you want to try something different.

Particularmente este libro me ha encantado, no tiene desperdicio.
Las explicaciones son buenas pero lo más interesante es que todos los modelos realizados son preciosos. Estoy encantada de haberlo comprado

This is a really interesting way of making quilts. Just one fabric and each hexagon is completely different. The hard part comes in arranging the pieces properly. This takes quite a bit of rearranging on a design wall.
