SUMMARY- "Baby, It's Cold Outside" is the quilt on the cover. My favorite is "Paramecium Unleashed" - it's a variant of "Pickle Dish" and it reminds me of slides I used to have to prepare for a soil and water lab I worked for during college. Good Times. :) The designer is enthusiastic about her subject, utterly convinced that paper piecing can be done by anyone, and that paper piecing will make all of her very complex looking patterns a snap to piece. I have reservations, very small ones, but boy does "Paramecium Unleashed" make me want to give it a try...
