Quilts for Chocolate Lovers

Summary: No Pressing Instructions???
Review: After I cut out all the pieces for the My Heart Belongs to Chocolate quilt I discovered that there are no pressing instructions for this quilt and it REALLY needs them! One of the main reason I buy patterns is so I don't have to spend time figuring out things like pressing instructions. I won't buy any more books from this author.

Review: Great book. I liked this book enough to buy a second as a gift. I have made 2 quilts from the book the instructions were very easy to follow. The book is really fun to read. Yummy recipes. Not a book of all brown quilts! Can't wait for her next book.

Summary: Love it!
Review: I finally found a book that made sense on choosing fabrics and such a great price. This is the best place to buy quilt books. Bought this book as soon as I learned she was going to be on Simply Quilts and have made one of the quilts already. Can't wait for her second book. How to keep your quilt from being wrapped around a refrigerator after you are dead and gone is a hoot. Now to decide which quilt to make next!

Summary: A "must" for all chocolate-loving needlecrafters!
Review: Janet Joens Worley's Quilts For Chocolate Lovers provides chocolate-inspired quilts and recipes to accompany them. An intriguing pairing of food and quilting, the designs don't always seem to link with food, but the intent and patterns are well done and quilters will relish both the results and the chocolate-inspired focus.

Summary: Real chocolate has more taste
Review: The title and concept assured them that every quilter would at least stop and look at this book. I know chocolate is brown, but did the surrounding fabrics all have to be tones and shades? Four of the quilts are so filled with busy, medium value prints that you have to look at the diagram to really see the design. In my opinion, the quilt that best interprets the theme is My Heart Belongs to Chocolate. It is the last project, but the one that clearly looks like a yummy box of gourmet candy.

The directions are clear, illustrated well and presented in an easy-to-follow format. Adding interest are the little snippets about chocolate in the margins and the recipes for each baked good supposedly recreated by a quilt.
