Reader ReviewsI am finding more quilt patterns are coming like dress patterns--- in a self-contained envelope - plasticized and made of cardboard rather than paper - that is re-sealable. Each envelope contains all the instructions on large sheets of paper that can be taped to a wall or pinned to a bulletin board. This prevents your instructions from becoming lost in the maze of fabric you're working with. The appliqué patterns are at full size so no copying is needed. You can take the pattern out of the envelope and start right in on creating your own winter garden. The directions for creating "Winter in the Garden" are well written and have various tips such as how to do mitered corners and the best way to cut your fabric. A color photo of the finished quilt is in the directions and, of course, on the envelope itself. A bonus booklet is included with this pattern. "Color-Palette Appliqué" explains what a color palette is and how the author used it in creating this project. If you read through this booklet before beginning your quilt, it will explains all the codes used in the directions. If you are an avid gardener or know someone who is, this quilt is one that will keep the summer blooms alive all year long. Make it for yourself or as a gift and the summer colors will brighten the room as well as keep a body warm.
