Book Review

Charm School by Vanessa Goertzen of Lella Boutique

This book takes you through 18 projects using purchased charm packs or your own
5 inch squares from your stash. The quilts are beginner friendly but many have the
appearance of more complicated quilts for the more advanced quilter. The blocks
in this book bridge the gap between modern and traditional. Come in and take a look at this book, you are sure to find several projects that you will want to make.
