This book didn't do it for me. It does provide a gallery of quilts made with "bold coloured" (ethnic) fabrics, I didn't feel like it discussed the challenge of using these sorts of fabrics in a useful way.

I do so love bold colors! Good advice for finding and using unusual fabrics. Also very interesting to read about Bianchi's process and the development of her technique over the years.

Well, this really made me want to go to Guatemala, but... not only was there not a single quilt in here I'd make, a couple of them made me go "Eugh."
