Designer Reber here touches on the human dimension of quilting, exploring how quilters get together to share their love of the art through fabric exchanges, block exchanges, block showers, row and round-robin quilts, milestone quilts, charity quilting projects, and quilter's retreats. This book covers every type of sharing activity or project a quilt guild or informal group of quilters might undertake and offers practical tips and useful ideas, e.g., patterns for quilts that can be completed during a weekend get-together. Fifteen quilt projects and 55 sample blocks make this book an excellent choice for public libraries.
