ffq-lar Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 I just purchased Sue Patten's Freehand Filler Patterns at my LQS. Wowee!! Great book--she shares four or five different quilting designs for each block. For example, Log Cabin, Square-in-a-square, Nine Patch, Snowball, etc. About 40 different blocks are covered. Also, there are matching sashing or border designs. Looks like a great investment!! Thanks, Sue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 Hey, I have this book too! LOVE IT! I was playing around with her pizazzy style of quilting yesterday and was having FUN! Aren't we so lucky to have these books and resources readily available to us? I feel so blessed. It's like being a kid in a candy store. So many things do, so many quilts to make, so many wonderful quilters willing to share their gifts with us. Yaaay! Life is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandraC Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 I love the book, too. Sue makes the designs fun and easy....and my customers are always so impressed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grammie Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 This a a great book! Perfect for your new machine owners too. Lots of freehand ideas that are not difficult and yet look fabulous when quilted. You'll look like a pro from the start. It's a must have for inspiration on " What the heck can I quilt in this area?" Worth every penny. More designs and less to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlene Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 Hi, I have several books that I recently bought and that is one. Guess I had better put it on the top of my list to look at first. Right now I am looking at Machine Quilting Solutions by Christine Maraccini which has some great ideas.

catsigler Posted September 9, 2007 Report Share Posted September 9, 2007 Thank you, thank you, thank you Sue Patten for writing this book! It has given me the tools and the courage to jump in and quilt my spiral lone star. This approach of breaking down the shapes and choosing the quilting designs is exactly what I needed. It has finally clicked. I get it. I'm thrilled with the way it's going. Gotta sleep now but I can't wait to get back at it tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skrat Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 I just recently purchased this book and yes, Sue, some great filler ideas. As a matter of fact, I\'m using it right now on a sampler quilt with lots of different star blocks in it. Great book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
