Beautiful modern quilts for every skill level
By Alissa R. Wright
Modern Minimal is a must-buy for any modern quilter, or traditional quilter interested in expanding his or her aesthetic to incorporate more solids, or just more of a modern sensibility into their work. This is a beautifully designed book with excellent instructions and diagrams and absolutely gorgeous photography. I especially loved how Alissa Haight Carlton shows how each of the pieces will look with different types of quilting. It reminds you of what a huge difference the actual quilting can make in the overall look of a quilt, particularly quilts like the one in this book.

Inspiration!
By Tess
This book is a beautiful collection of 20 modern quilt projects. Alissa's designs emphasize the use of solid fabrics, negative space, asymmetry, and a simplicity that allows the quilts to made entirely on a home sewing machine. I can't wait to make at least one of these quilts!

Immediate Inspiration
By mtn1mel
I preordered this book, and was SO excited when Amazon sent it to me earlier than I expected! I spent that first evening poring over every quilt, every dynamic, and every detail.
I was working on a quilt at the time, with a specific quilting design in mind, but after reading about one of her quilts, I changed my mind and quilted it differently...and I LOVE IT!!!
This book is great for beginners and experienced quilters around the world. I can only imagine how my own quilting and quilt style will improve now that I have this book. And I'm not really one to buy a lot of quilt books! I will definitely recommend it to all my quilting friends. :)
Thank you, Alissa, for inspiring me and encouraging me to step out of my comfort zone and create something beautiful that I love!
