Quilting With the Muppets (2000, Paperback)

The Muppets are among the more easily recognized characters around today, and this book includes them all. Whether you're looking to make a security blanket for a child or want to create something for a "grown-up type person" (I plan to make a jacket for myself), you can find everyone's favorite Muppet here. From Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch to Kermit and Miss Piggy to Rizzo the Rat and Elmo, they're all included in this book. The patterns and instructions are clearly given, with variations offered so you can produce flat appliqued quilting squares or fully sculptured dimensional pieces that really look like the puppets they're patterned after. The pictures of the quilts that have been crafted as gifts by the people behind the Mupppets offer both inspiration and a look behind the scenes at the personalities that create the beloved characters. I think this is a well written, beautifully photographed book that I expect to get a lot of use out of.

I bought this book for my niece and nephew. They love Elmo. I will use the design to make them placemats. The pictures and directions are easy. I would recommend this book.

This is a good book, there isn't much out there for quilting that deals with the muppets. I puchased because I need to make a quilt and my cusotmer is looking for something with the Muppets but there isn't any material out there with them on it. Thank you.
