About the Author

Twenty nine years ago Eleanor Burns introduced her first Quilt in a Day book, cultivating a quiltmaking revolution. She presented her unique style, a diverse combination of cutting and sewing applications, creating new techniques altogether. Her concise step by step directions are easy to grasp, allowing the possibility for anyone to be successful at making a quilt. Eleanor Burns gave quiltmakers techniques that compacted months into merely a day, a quilt in a day, spreading her vibrant enthusiasm within everyone. She has motivated thousands of want-to-be quilters with needed confidence and assurance. Altogether, the impact of her influences opened the door to a renewal. Her efforts sowed the seeds that have grown into many techniques that are commonly used today. Since 1978 when she self-published her first book "Make a Quilt in a Day: Log Cabin Pattern," she has authored over seventy five additional books. Throughout the world today, there are thousands of inst!ructors teaching her quiltmaking methods. Her first Quilt in a Day TV series began airing on PBS in 1990 and is still broadcast nationwide and abroad and now her shows can be seen on the world wide web on QNN and Quilters TV.

A collector's item5
This delightful book is a unique keeper. It is a visual treat of reproduction fabric projects. The spiral bound design makes it special and so easy to read as the pages lie flat. The cardboard templates easily punch out and don't need to be cut. My first project will be the 1930's style Etta's apron which also includes a paper pattern. A nice touch is the appropriate quilting design or a chicken or rooster located at the page number.

Great book. I love the family stories and pictures throughout the book. Instructions are simple to follow and explained will. I especially like the variations of quilts possible with just a rearrangement of the blocks. This one is a keeper!

I had been wanting to make a Dresden Plate quilt for years, but was too intimidated to start this quilt. Eleanor Burns made the Dresden Plate block easy and doable, I am almost finished with my quilt!
