Summary: Great book!
Review: I decided to tackle a stack-n-whack for my second quilt and loved this book! The beginning couple of pages did a great job of explaining the basic process. I found that cutting out the pieces was the hardest part and once that was done, the blocks went together so quickly. I can't wait to make the same quilt again in different fabrics and compare the two results! The illusions in this book are also so amazing that it makes my quilts seem so much more professional because the design appears so complicated to a novice quilter!

Summary: Neat new ideas
Review: I recently read the new book Stack and Whackier and really liked it. The designs are fresh and new and I made the cover quilt easily and fast from the directions in the book. I used an oriental print for the box tops and it is stunning. I also perused the rest of the designs as I was looking for a class to teach. The designs are quite varied and most wouldn't be classed as Stack and Whack upon first glance. I especially liked the classification of the designs as Easy, Intermediate or Advanced although I made the cover quilt which was classified as Intermediate but which I thought wasn't hard at all. Anyone with some knowledge of quilting techniques should have no trouble with that one. A must for the library of anyone who likes the Stack and Whack technique.

Summary: Some interesting variations on Stack N' Whack
Review: If you are just getting into Stack and Whack, get Karen's first book. If you really love it and want more ideas, this book will inspire you. It's such fun to see what Karen makes using today's large scale prints - she deserves a quilter's hall of fame award for inspiring many to play with prints! The mirror-image variations in this book are interesting, but I've had a hard time finding fabrics that are appropriate for them (the color saturation on the back needs to be almost as rich as the front for these to be effective since you are using both sides).

Summary: Not for beginners
Review: The projects in this book are very well documented as to
how to pick out fabric and how to cut it to get the
dramatic effects for these projects. Very clear directions
with lots of pictures to guide you in assembly. You must
have a basic quilting knowledge and be willing to put in
the extra time to turn out these quality projects.
A beautiful book for someone who wants beautiful projects
that are a little more challenging.

Summary: Another Wonderful Book
Review: This book continues with Bethany's wonderful methods of transforming fabric into great kaleidoscopic blocks. The directions are extremely well written for use, even by people who have never done Stack&Whack quilt blocks before. I love the new shapes that Bethany is using, since I can use smaller amounts of my fabrics with some of the easier shapes. I'll be amazing my friends soon with some more wonderful quilts from these patterns!!

Summary: Whackier than Ever
Review: This is the book I asked for for my birthday. I could hardly wait, and was on the list before it even came out. And I wasn't disappointed!!!! This is the best ever. How Bethany can come up with even more designs is pure brilliance on her part. And all we can do is have the luxury of following her very clear instructions to make our own! For someone like me, who is a visual learner, her books are the few that make sense. Each instruction is concise and picture perfect. I can't wait to try all these new techniques to add to the others!!!
Thanks again, Bethany Reynolds. Way to go.....
