There truly is something special about doing projects together with friends, especially when they take many weeks (or months) to complete. I love how this book shows kids (and their parents) the love, time and hard work that goes into even a single quilt. I personally never appreciated it before I learned to quilt myself!
Definitely look this book up if you’re learning about teamwork, crafts, sewing, or even celebrating National Quilting Month (March, by the way). It is straightforward and well done.
