I love this book!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
My sister got me this book for my birthday in May. I have some experience with basic quilting, but have never done applique. It is December now and I have made all nine sesame street character blocks in the book and they turned out GREAT! They were EASY and FUN! I subsequently taught my sister, who has no sewing skills, to make the blocks and she has made some of the muppet show patterns already. We are having so much fun and my 6-month old daughter is already fascinated by the bright, multi-textured characters on the blocks.
loved it!

I bought this book a year ago and finished 2 Sesame Street quilts for my children for Christmas. The book gives a lot of great ideas. I did not use all of the templates that were provided but purchased a kite that had better scale characters to recreate. The stories about the quilts the author made are fun.

The quilt blocks in this book are so much fun to make! Experienced quilters can use many different types of fabric to give the quilt dimension, but one-dimensional fabrics work well too. The instructions on applique could have been a bit more detailed, but they are probably enough for firt-time applique'ers. 15 blocks to choose from allows you to make a project of any size.
Fun book!

While this book does give fabric requirements for individual blocks, it doesn't give those for entire quilts. Looking at the bright side, however, the blocks could be put together in so many different ways that a pattern for a single quilt might be limiting. I enjoyed reading about the friendship quilts made by the Sesame Street people, and the patterns for the blocks are adorable. The instructions were easy to follow, as they use simple fusible appliqué with optional satin stitching (recommended if you're going to wash the finished product). I made one block (Elmo) for a placemat for my grandson, and it turned out so cute that I may have to make an entire set for the family!
